SPQR

SPQR addresses the integration of heterogeneous datasets in the humanities, specifically data relating to classical antiquity, using a linked data approach and based on the recently published Europeana Data Model (EDM). Published data includes:

• The Heidelberger Gesamtverzeichnis der griechischen Papyrusurkunden Aegyptens (HGV), a collection of metadata records for 65,000 Greek papyri from Egypt.
• Projet Volterra, a database of Roman legal texts, currently in the low tens of thousands but very much work in progress, stored in a series of themed tables in Microsoft Access.
• The Inscriptions of Aphrodisias (InsAph), a corpus of 2,000 ancient Greek inscriptions from the Roman city of Aphrodisias.

RDF dumps and a SPARQL endpoint are available. At this time the project does not use resolvable URIs.
