Many members of the ISAW community are aware of our Ancient World Image Bank (AWIB) project. It began in 2009 — and continues today — as a collaborative effort to collect and share free, open-access images of archaeological sites, landscapes, and artifacts. This academic year we are working on two new initiatives that will enrich AWIB's content and improve access to it.

Digitizing the 35mm slides of Emily and Cornelius Vermeule


Among the treasures of the ISAW library are over 2,000 volumes that constitute The Collection of Emily and Cornelius Vermeule. The generous gift of Cornelius Vermeule to the Institute, this collection includes a number of rare editions of works on classical archaeology and philology, as well as many difficult-to-find books acquired on research trips abroad by the collectors. In addition to the books, the gift included pamphlets, offprints, and 43 metal boxes containing 35mm slides, most of which appear to have been original creations, rather than purchased sets. We estimate the total number of slides at around 3,200. Most of these boxes appear to have been organized for lectures, and are accompanied by varying degrees of documentation.
The AWIB team, in collaboration with Library staff, is currently conducting an inventory of these slides, with the objective of distinguishing between those that are original photography of objects or sites, and those that were shot from plates in books or other published sources. Once the inventory is complete, the original photography will be scanned and copies of these images, complete with as much descriptive information as can be collected, will be added to the contents of AWIB. Iris Fernandez, the AWIB Managing Editor, is carrying out this work with the assistance of an academic intern, Emmanuel Aprilakis, a Classics major from Hunter College.

Upgrading for access and preservation


We are also retooling the technology that underpins AWIB in order to:

  1. improve our ability to publish images to the ISAW Photostream on the Flickr.com photo-sharing website,

  2. establish a purpose-built website for all AWIB imagery, and

  3. automate the deposit of all our content in the NYU Faculty Digital Archive (FDA).

Iris and Emmanuel are joined in this work by ISAW's Associate Director for Digital Programs, Tom Elliott, and by Ronak Parpani, a Master's student in Computer Science at NYU's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences.


Our new software for uploading images to Flickr will take full advantage of the service's application programming interface, improving the quality of the imagery and descriptive information we can upload and making the process easier and faster.
The new "native" website for AWIB is being built with the open-source Omeka content management system, developed by the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason University. It will provide more nuanced display and search of our descriptive information than Flickr provides, and will also give us an environment we can customize in the future to better integrate AWIB content with our other online resources.
Depositing copies of AWIB imagery and descriptive data in the Faculty Digital Archive will help protect AWIB from degradation or catastrophe for the long haul. Operated by NYU's library system, the FDA keeps multiple digital copies of each deposit in geographically separated locations and constantly performs automated testing to ensure that those copies remain complete and unchanged.

Impact and participation


This year's work, supported by the Director's Projects and Grants Fund, will not only expand the content and features of the Ancient World Image Bank, but also establish it as a mature system to support the entire ISAW community in collecting and disseminating imagery for teaching, research, and scholarly communication.
Readers interested in contributing their own original imagery to AWIB may contact the Managing Editor via isaw.awib@nyu.edu. Those interested in providing financial support to the project may contact Tom Elliott at tom.elliott@nyu.edu or make a contribution to the ISAW Digital Programs Fund via one of the mechanisms described on the Giving to ISAW page.

Lexundria: A Digital Library of Antiquity




Lexundria is a digital library of classical antiquity. Although most of the texts on this site can be found elsewhere on the internet, this project aims to make them accessible in a more research-friendly format. The Lexundria editions are thus distinguished by the following features:

1. Standard reference numbers. Most classical texts have a standard referencing scheme used by academics and other authors (analogous to the verse divisions of the Bible). These divisions are clearly marked in the texts on this site, even when the corresponding print edition does not contain them.

2. Pin-citation functionality. You can easily look up a passage at Lexundria using its pin citation. Rather than browse through long blocks of text in order to find the passage you’re looking for, simply enter the standard citation in the Lexundria search box. Lexundria will automatically pinpoint the passage and display it.

3. Parallel-editions mode. When Lexundria hosts more than one edition of a work, you will see a “compare” option at the bottom of the version menu. This feature allows you to compare editions side-by-side, one passage at a time. For a taste of how this works, try reading Epicurus’s Kuriai Doxai in comparison mode.

4. A comprehensive search engine. Lexundria’s full-text search engine makes it easy to search for words and phrases. To search the entire Lexundria library, simply enter your search terms in the search box and hit submit. To limit your search to a single work, add a backslash followed by the standard abbreviation for the work. (For example, “Antonius \Cic. Phil.” will search for occurrences of “Antonius” only in Cicero’s Philippics.) To limit your search to a single edition, add another backslash followed by the Lexundria abbreviation for the edition. (Edition abbreviations can be found on Lexundria’s table of contents page for the work you’re interested in.)

Please note that Lexundria will conduct a natural-language search by default. To conduct a Boolean search instead, add an equals sign to the beginning of your query.



With only a few dozen texts online at the moment, this project is still in its infancy. But even a limited version is preferable to a “coming soon” page, and in that spirit this modest start is offered to the public. I hope that this resource will make consulting these important texts more convenient than ever.

Pede certo: metrica latina digitale





Pede certo è uno strumento per l’analisi automatica dei versi latini, messo a punto dall’Università di Udine nell’ambito del progetto FIRB Traditio patrum. La sua applicazione all’archivio digitale Musisque Deoque — che comprende i testi della poesia latina dalle origini al VII secolo d.C. — ha consentito la scansione dei circa 244.000 versi dattilici in esso contenuti.

In questo sito un motore di ricerca appositamente sviluppato si avvale dei risultati dell’analisi per interrogare il corpus su base metrica, secondo molteplici approcci.


Nella pagina Scansioni libere è disponibile inoltre un dimostrativo semplificato, ma immediatamente usabile, dello strumento con cui è stata eseguita la scansione.

Pede certo is program for the automatic analysing of Latin verses developed by the Università di Udine as part of the Traditio patrum FIRB project. Its application to the Musisque Deoque digital archive – containing Latin poetry texts from the archaic period to the 7th century AD – has enabled the scansion of approximately 244,000 dactylic verses.

On this site, a specifically developed search engine that draws upon the results of the scansion may be used to conduct metrical investigations of the corpus, through a variety of approaches.

The Free scansions page offers a simplified but immediately usable demo version of the scanning program
