This project will create an authoritative collection of Greek personal name evidence from Egypt, unlocking the potential contained in such names for innovative research into every aspect of ancient life in Greco-Roman Egypt. It forms part of the Lexicon of Greek Personal Names (LGPN) project which covers the period from the earliest historical records (8th c. BC) to the early Byzantine period (7th c. AD). LGPN is not just about names but about people. Every attested bearer of a name is included. It is thus a fundamental tool for research into most aspects of social history.The seven published LGPN volumes (an eighth is imminent, a ninth in progress) have established themselves among the essential items in any ancient historian's toolbox. Through a succession of conferences and publications, LGPN has encouraged a boom in onomastic awareness and research, among literary scholars and social historians as well as epigraphists. Those nine volumes will have covered the whole ancient Greek world from Italy to Pakistan, other than Egypt. We plan to tackle Egypt in two phases; the first, the subject of the present application, is to cover Lower (i.e. northern) Egypt (the Nile delta) and the Fayum oasis. Our current estimate of the number of persons involved is c. 100,000, i.e. on a scale to require two volumes of c. 450 folio pages. The history of Greco-Roman Egypt is the history of the imposition of first Greek, then Roman rule upon a tenacious ancient culture. Naming is one of the key sources of evidence for the complicated cultural accommodations and resistances that occurred. Male Egyptians seeking to get ahead in the public sphere often took a Greek name in addition to an Egyptian (sometime 'translated' from the latter); under Roman rule they often bore two Greek names, apparently in imitation of the two (or three) names borne by Roman citizens. The emergence of numerous Greco-Egyptian hybrid names by contrast attests a sense in which cultural mixing was taken for granted. Later, new names become a crucial if controversial index of the spread of Christianity. Egypt presents two special challenges. First, evidence in Greek here co-exists with that in Egyptian demotic. Second, because of the survival of papyri in a dry climate, the quantity of evidence available is uniquely abundant. We will meet both challenges by collaboration with the creators of Leuven's Egyptological website Trismegistos (TM), which has already collected most of the names attested in Greek and Egyptian (demotic) sources, but in a form which urgently requires sifting and sorting. Importing the Leuven data through a specially designed interface will allow much rapider progress than in previous volumes. These twin strategies will allow us to include the seemingly unmanageably copious Egyptian material in user-friendly form within our series of published volumes, and also on the searchable website along with the rest of the Greek world.Results will be disseminated via the two volumes (listing every bearer of every name under place of origin), the website, and a sixth conference-plus-volume in the established LGPN series, at which experts will tackle the issues of cultural interaction and change posed by the Egyptian material with the aid of the evidence collected by the project.LGPN has always been an important presence in the field of Digital Humanities, most recently since a major conversion of the database to allow full online searching on the basis of (e.g.) location, time, and status. In collaboration with a team led by Project Partner Sophie Minon of Paris we will develop a 'linguistic extension' (LGPN-Ling) which will provide a full linguistic analysis of all Greek names in the database. We will launch LGPN into the world of Linked Open Data via an open source tool, to be created in 2018, which will embed links to LGPN in the digital 'Inscriptions of Sicily' and which we will re-use to link up with all other digital epigraphic corpora.

该项目将创建一个来自埃及的希腊人名证据的权威集合，释放这些名字中包含的潜力，用于对希腊罗马埃及古代生活的各个方面进行创新研究。它是希腊人名词典（LGPN）项目的一部分，该项目涵盖了最早的历史记录（公元8世纪）。公元前7世纪至拜占庭早期（公元前7世纪）。AD）。LGPN不仅仅是关于名字，而是关于人。每个人都有一个名字的证明。它是研究社会历史各个方面的基本工具。已出版的七卷LGPN（第八卷即将出版，第九卷正在制作中）已经成为任何古代历史学家工具箱中的重要项目。通过一系列的会议和出版物，LGPN鼓励了文学学者和社会历史学家以及金石学家对专名学的认识和研究。这九卷将涵盖整个古希腊世界，从意大利到巴基斯坦，除了埃及。我们计划分两个阶段解决埃及问题;第一阶段，即本申请的主题，是覆盖下（即北方）埃及（尼罗河三角洲）和法尤姆绿洲。我们目前估计涉及的人数是c。100，000，即在需要两卷C的规模上。450页希腊罗马埃及的历史是希腊人，然后是罗马人对一个顽强的古代文化的统治的历史。这是发生的复杂的文化适应和抵抗的关键证据来源之一。男性埃及人寻求在公共领域取得成功，往往采取希腊名字除了一个埃及人（有时“翻译”从后者）;在罗马统治下，他们往往有两个希腊名字，显然是模仿两个（或三个）的名字由罗马公民承担。相反，大量希腊-埃及混合名字的出现证明了一种文化混合被认为是理所当然的感觉。后来，新的名字成为基督教传播的一个关键，但有争议的指标。埃及提出了两个特殊的挑战。首先，希腊语的证据与埃及语的证据共存。其次，由于纸莎草纸在干燥的气候中生存，因此可获得的证据数量非常丰富。我们将通过与鲁汶地名学网站Trismegi（TM）的创建者合作来应对这两个挑战，该网站已经收集了大部分在希腊和埃及（民间）来源中得到证实的地名，但其形式迫切需要筛选和分类。通过一个特别设计的接口来检索鲁汶的数据将比以前的卷有更快的进展。这两项战略将使我们能够以用户友好的形式将看似难以管理的大量埃及材料纳入我们的系列出版物中，并与希腊世界的其他地方一起放在可搜索的网站沿着。（列出每个持有人的每一个名字下的原产地），网站，和第六次会议加卷在既定的LGPN系列，专家们将在该项目收集的证据的帮助下解决埃及材料所带来的文化互动和变化问题。LGPN一直是数字人文领域的重要存在，最近一次是数据库的重大转换，允许基于（例如）地点时间和状态我们将与巴黎的项目合作伙伴Sophie Minon领导的团队合作，开发一个“语言扩展”（LGPN-Ling），对数据库中的所有希腊名字进行全面的语言分析。我们将在2018年通过一个开源工具将LGPN引入链接开放数据的世界，该工具将在数字“西西里的介绍”中嵌入到LGPN的链接，我们将重新使用该工具与所有其他数字金石语料库链接。
