The Canadian Epigraphic Mission of Xanthos - Letoon (Lycia)

It's been a long time since I had an interesting conversation about digital approaches to epigraphic publication with Patrick Baker during the Epigraphic Congress in Barcelona. It's been not quite so long -- but clearly too long -- since I had a close look at what he and Gaétan Thériault have been doing since then with the Xanthos/Letoon epigraphy site:
  • Creative-commons licensing (cc-by-nc-nd)
  • Info on the project
  • Yearly reports on the survey seasons
  • Articles, papers, lectures and conferences
  • A documentary database including photographs of inscriptions and squeezes
Cool.
