Open Access Numismatics: Nomisma

Nomisma

Nomisma.org is a collaborative effort to provide stable digital representations of numismatic concepts and entities, for example the generic idea of a coin hoard or an actual hoard as documented in the print publication An Inventory of Greek Coin Hoards (IGCH). Nomisma.org provides a short, often recognizable, URI for each resource it defines and presents the related information in both human and machine readable form. Creators of digital content can use these stable URIs to build a web of linked knowledge that enables faster acquisition and analysis of well-structured numismatic data.
Example URIs are:
See list of all id's assigned to date.
The current data has been contributed by researchers at the American Numismatic Society, British Museum, The University of Paris-Sorbonne Nomisma project, Yale University Art Gallery. Hosting for Nomisma is provided by the The American Numismatic Society.

AWOL and ISAW News

As of this morning the number of email addresses subscribed to The Ancient World Online by way of the FeedBurner utility has passed six hundred. I'm pleased that so many of you find it useful enough to subscribe. I welcome your feedback in the form of comments on in individual posts, or directly.

I am considering ways to make the data presented here more bibliographically accessible. Here at the ISAW Library we are developing schemes to create MARC records for the open access resources for which such records are appropriate. I am also considering developing a publicly accessible Zotero bibliography parallel to AWOL.

For those of you who have not already seen it, I would like to draw your attention to the exhibition at ISAW which opened earlier this month.

The Heroic Age. A Journal of Early Medieval Northwestern Europe
ISSN 1526-1867

The Heroic Age is dedicated to the exploration all aspects of early medieval Northwestern Europe, from a variety of vantage points and disciplines from the beginning of the fourth century through the beginning of the thirteenth. By bringing various points of view to the table, we hope to open new vistas of investigation and strengthen ties among early medieval studies and its popular bases. The title "Heroic Age" is applicable to literary, historical, folkloric studies and the material culture that lies behind the people who lived, wrote, and championed their beliefs and created cultures in the period. We will strive to understand and promote understanding of this dynamic early medieval period.
