The integration of digital humanities in the field of ancient history has generated major editorial and analytical epigraphic projects based on e.g. amphora stamps for administrative usage and quality control of the content, religiously motivated engravings in sanctuaries, Greco-Roman inscribed epitaphs or Pompeiian pornographic graffiti. Large digital datasets have also opened the door to the application of new methods such as Machine Learning. Working with digital methods and making use of digital tools has opened eyes to new approaches, allowing for innovative, unusual perspectives and interpretations of Greek and Roman history, economy and culture. There exist several large (100,000+ texts) and many more small-scale epigraphic databases and corpora. The development of the EpiDoc TEI XML standard in the early 2000s has accelerated this work and inspired the first international efforts to network the many, excellent databases and to develop common minimum standards. In the last decade, the EAGLE project achieved some excellent results in bringing together epigraphers and encouraging the adoption of the Trismegistos ID-standard, but this project also demonstrated that the goal of interoperability implied by linked data requires a different approach than the one at hand in the 2010s. The overall desirability for FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data is fundamental to advanced research into the epigraphic, linguistic and material culture of the ancient world. With the increase in Linked Open Data and novel interface technologies and standards, this project will be able to create the tools and the community needed to transform epigraphic research in the digital age. Our internationally collaborative approach will enable and support innovative research across epigraphic data, and the wider linked web of data (especially archaeological data), such that all epigraphic data is increasingly FAIR for both the research community and the wider public. To that end, we aim to (1) consolidate community-wide standards (vocabularies and ontology); (2) develop the tools for community implementation of those standards (vocabulary and ontology hosting and publication); (3) host and make fully accessible the resulting linked open data published by individual projects (RDF/XML data publication). The project team, supported and backed by a dedicated community of epigraphers, will provide the advice and training to enable alignment with agreed standards by past, current and future projects (technical and practical support, development of best-practice networks and training materials). The PIs and the team members will illustrate the cutting-edge research potential of epigraphic linked data and its integration into the wider web of data by publications and innovative research on Greek and Roman history, culture, and economy.

数字人文学科在古代历史领域的整合产生了重大的编辑和分析金石项目，例如用于行政用途和内容质量控制的双耳瓶邮票，宗教圣地的宗教雕刻，希腊罗马墓志铭或庞贝色情涂鸦。大型数字数据集也为机器学习等新方法的应用打开了大门。使用数字方法和使用数字化工具为新方法打开了眼界，允许对希腊和罗马的历史，经济和文化进行创新，不寻常的视角和解释。有几个大型（100，000+文本）和更多的小型金石数据库和语料库。在21世纪初，EpiDoc TEI XML标准的发展加速了这项工作，并激发了第一批国际努力，将许多优秀的数据库联网，并制定共同的最低标准。在过去的十年中，EAGLE项目在汇集金石学家和鼓励采用Trismegigiblid-standard方面取得了一些出色的成果，但该项目也表明，链接数据所隐含的互操作性目标需要一种与2010年代不同的方法。对FAIR（可查找、可解释、可互操作、可重复使用）数据的总体需求是对古代世界金石学、语言学和物质文化进行深入研究的基础。随着链接开放数据和新的接口技术和标准的增加，该项目将能够创建在数字时代改变金石学研究所需的工具和社区。我们的国际合作方法将支持和支持金石数据的创新研究，以及更广泛的数据网络（特别是考古数据），使所有金石数据对研究界和更广泛的公众越来越公平。为此，我们的目标是：（1）整合社区范围的标准（词汇表和本体）;（2）开发社区实施这些标准的工具（词汇表和本体托管和发布）;（3）托管并充分访问各个项目发布的链接开放数据（RDF/XML数据发布）。该项目小组将在一个专门的金石学家社区的支持下，提供咨询和培训，使过去、目前和未来的项目能够与商定的标准保持一致（技术和实践支持，开发最佳做法网络和培训材料）。PI和团队成员将通过出版物和对希腊和罗马历史，文化和经济的创新研究来说明金石链接数据的前沿研究潜力及其融入更广泛的数据网络。
