Images of Ancient Greek Inscriptions
The list below provides direct access to a number of image collections. These collections are developed and maintained by some of the organizations listed above. By placing their images on the internet they have made them available to a worldwide network of scholars interested in ancient Greek epigraphy. They deserve our sincerest gratitude.
 
  1. This site presents the electronic second edition of Aphrodisias in Late Antiquity: The Late Roman and Byzantine Inscriptions, by Charlotte Roueché, King's College London, expanded and revised from the version published by the Society for the Promotion of Roman Studies in 1989. Several Greek inscriptions are included in this electronic edition.
  2. David Gill's Art and Archaeology of Attica Site
  3. David Gill's site provides photographic resources to explore some of the archaeological monuments of the city of Athens and the surrounding countryside of Attica. Several inscriptions are included among the photographs.
  4. A large collection of inscriptions from Macedonia.
  5. The Web site of the Center for Epigraphical and Paleographical Studies at Ohio State University contains a list of scanned images of dated Attic inscriptions. Each listing serves as a link to an image of the relevant squeeze and is accompanied by information listing publication(s) where a copy of the text can be found including the most recent publication from which a bibliography for the inscription can be obtained. Each image also serves as a link to a larger version of the same squeeze. A 2 cm scale has been scanned in with each squeeze (most are approximately twice actual size).
  6. The Centre is engaged in a long-term project to create a library of digitised images of Greek inscriptions. The first phase of the project is based on material in the Centre’s own squeeze collection.
  7. The Cox Archive is an archive of notebooks, photographs and squeezes from Sir Christopher Cox's two Phrygian expeditions in 1925 and 1926 that formed the basis for Barbara Levick's and Stephen Mitchell's publication of volumes IX and X of Monumenta Asia Minoris Antiqua in 1988 and 1993.
  8. Images of several hundred inscriptions are now available, though the site is somewhat difficult to navigate.
  9. The “Inscriptions of Israel/Palestine” project at Brown University seeks to collect and make accessible over the Web all of the previously published inscriptions (and their English translations) of Israel/Palestine from the Persian period through the Islamic conquest (ca. 500 BCE - 640 CE). There are about 15,000 of these inscriptions, written primarily in Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek and Latin.
  10. This attractive site contains images of a good number of inscriptions. Unfortunately, if the pop-up blocker in your web browser is enabled, you will need to disable it to view those inscriptions.

INSCRIPTIONES-L is a moderated scholarly discussion list devoted to the study of Classical Epigraphy. Its purpose is to provide a forum for all aspects of such study. While the primary focus of the list is the discussion of inscriptions from the Greek and Roman worlds, discussion of inscriptions from 'peripheral cultures' is also welcome.
