3. I.Sicily. an Epidoc Corpus for Ancient Sicily
3. I.Sicily. An EpiDoc Corpus for Ancient Sicily Jonathan Prag*, James Chartrand**, James Cummings*** Abstract This paper introduces the EpiDoc corpus of inscriptions on stone for ancient Sicily, I.Sicily. The project is one of the first attempts to generate a substantial regional corpus in EpiDoc. The project is confronting a number of challenges that may be of wider interest to the digital epigraphy community, including those of unique identifiers, linked data, museum collections, mapping, and data conversion and integration, and these are briefly outlined in the paper. Keywords: Sicily, Epigraphy, Epidoc, Greek, Latin, Pleiades, multilingualism 3.1. Introduction: what is I.Sicily I.Sicily is an online, open access, digital corpus of the inscriptions on stone from ancient Sicily.1 The corpus aims to include all texts in- scribed on stone, in any language, between approximately the sev- enth century BC and the seventh century AD. The corpus currently contains records for over 2,500 texts, and when complete is likely to contain c.4,000. The corpus is built upon a conversion from a legacy dataset of metadata in MS Access to EpiDoc TEI XML.2 The XML re- cords are held in an eXist database for xQuery access, and additionally * University of Oxford. corresponding author Email: [email protected]. ** OpenSky Solutions *** University of Oxford 1 The corpus will be mounted at www.sicily.classics.ox.ac.uk.

Across the centuries, olive trees are the only cultivated plants that tell the story of Mediterranean landscapes. The same as stone monuments, these green monuments represent a real Mediterranean natural and cultural heritage. The aim of this paper is to discuss the value of monumental trees as “biocultural heritage” elements and the role they play in Citation: Schicchi, R.; Speciale, C.; the interpretation of the historical stratification of the landscape. -

The block is intact, but has suffered considerable loss to the front left edge and upper front left corner, as well as general degradation of the lower front edge and lower front right corner; the rear upper right corner is also missing. The upper surface shows traces of something being placed on top, but since the stone was apparently reused in the wall of the church, it is hard to know what is original.

Al Sindaco Signora Franca Iurato ed all’Amministrazione Comunale di Santa Croce Camerina va la nostra gratitudine per aver costantemente sostenuto l’Associazione e per- messo, mettendo a disposizione strutture e risorse, la pubblicazione del presente volume. ll Presidente e il Consiglio Direttivo Santa Croce Camerina - Piazza Marittima nel 1900 (G. Aquila) 2 PRESENTAZIONE Il secondo volume dell’Archivio Storico accoglie la raccolta di alcuni articoli, scaturenti da ricer- che d’archivio o da campagne effettuate nei siti archeologici locali, che analizzano momenti della nostra storia. I soci hanno potuto usufruire, nel corso del presente anno, di diverse iniziative ed attività culturali organizzate dalla “Società Santacrocese di Storia Patria”. Il dottor Giovanni Di Stefano, direttore del Museo Regionale di Kamarina, ha aperto la serie di conferenze, trattando sulle recenti scoperte archeologiche effettuate nel sito di Kaukana, ed in particola- re sul “quartiere Vandalo” e sulle tombe che coronano l’abside della chiesetta Bizantina. Il dottor Saverio Scerra, archeologo presso la Soprintendenza ai Beni Culturali ed Ambientali di Ragusa, ha effettuato una conferenza sugli approdi nella costa meridionale della Sicilia, nel tratto com- preso tra Gela e Pachino, soffermandosi dettagliatamente sulle ipotesi relative all’approdo di Kaukana - Punta Secca. I relatori Di Stefano e Scerra, hanno trasmesso alla redazione dell’Archivio Storico, gli articoli inerenti i temi trattati nelle conferenze, che vengono pubblicati nel presente volume.
