Unearthed from the Archives
The CIE editor Gustav Herbig was working on an edition of Etruscan inscriptions from Campania at the time of his death in 1925. His papers were long thought to have been lost during the Second World War, but they have recently been rediscovered in Berlin. This article outlines the efforts to publish the Campanian inscriptions in the German CIE project between 1901 and 1941. Illustrations, field-notes and discussions by Herbig on 43 Campanian vase…
Paint Pigment on Epigraphic Squeezes
The practice of wet squeezing as a means of creating epigraphic facsimiles was widespread during the 19th and 20th centuries, but often negatively impacted the original inscriptions, particularly in cases where paint pigment was present. Depending on the precise method used, the pigment may transfer from the original to the squeeze. This article presents a case-study of four such squeezes made by Swedish Etruscologist Olof August Danielsson in 18…
A Digital Concordance of Etruscan, Faliscan, and Early Latin Inscriptions from Etruria
Epigraphic concordances (lists which give corresponding references for two or more epigraphic corpora) are an indispensable resource for any scholar whose work relates to inscriptions. Despite their usefulness, there are inherent issues with conventional concordances of the type found at the back of epigraphic corpora. This article presents a digital concordance for Etruscan, Faliscan and early Latin inscriptions from Etruria. The concordance, wh…
From deceit to pain
In Late Latin, dolus ‘deceit’ expanded its semantic scope and took on the meanings of dolor ‘pain, suffering, grief, anguish’. This article lays out the literary and epigraphic attestations for dolus ‘suffering’ in full and discusses the difficulties in determining whether a change in semantics has occurred. Using digital resources such as Perseus Digital Library and the linguistic corpus LatinISE as the basis for quantitative analysis, suggested…
A new corpus annotation framework for Latin diachronic lexical semantics
We present a new corpus-based resource and methodology for the annotation of Latin lexical semantics, consisting of 2,399 annotated passages of 40 lemmas from the Latin diachronic corpus LatinISE. We also describe how the annotation was designed, analyse annotators’ styles, and present the preliminary results of a study on the lexical semantics and diachronic change of the 40 lemmas. We complement this analysis with a case study on semantic vague…
When the Phoenicians Were Swedish
Olof Rudbeck's Atlantica (1679-1702) is a characteristically wide-ranging example of Early Modern scholarship in which the author draws on a compendious assortment of evidence to argue that his native Sweden was the cradle of human civilization. Within this discussion, he devotes particular attention to the Phoenicians, whom he attempts to paint as descendants of "Scythians" who had migrated to the Mediterranean from an original Swedish homeland.…
