#EpigraphyTuesday Had a cool discussion this afternoon about the Altinum proposal for epigraphic editions in Wikidata (www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:An...) and the IDEA project's Wikidata Modeling Inscriptions doc (docs.google.com/document/d/1...). Lots of great ideas and pointers to good practice.

This #EpigraphyTuesday I have been teaching curse tablets in Roman Epigraphy MA class, starting with this Romano-British curse to Lady Nemesis for vengeance for a stolen cloak and boots (romaninscriptionsofbritain.org/inscriptions...). My catchphrase when looking at ancient curses? "Be careful!"

#epigraphy #ancientsky Anyone help with this query? (I suspect rather than a book, there may a clever way to search various databases for this sort of info...)

If you're going to the Epigraphy Society colloquium in London this Saturday (britishepigraphysociety.com/bes-colloquia), I am running a small book sale of cut price (in some cases VERY cut price) epigraphic publications in the afternoon break. Come say hi.
