In Archeofoss 2020, Irene Carpanese presented A.R.C.A. (Archiviazione, Ricerca e Comunicazione del dato in Archeologia), an open-source software capable of publishing archaeological data on-line (abstract in https://zenodo.org/record/4002961#.YHgzlOgzaUk).

The goal of the software is to manage, in a simple way, archaeological data of different nature (textual to spatial or even 3D data), making them “scalable”: easily reusable independently of other projects and different institutions. The idea is to create a product that encourages the data holder/owner to make their information open and available.

The software was developed without a typical relational DB, in order to build a flexible and adaptive product able to communicate with different datasets and capable of interconnecting various data collected in multiple projects.

This project laid the cornerstone to develop A.R.C.A. itself. The software has big potential, but its growth depends on its use by the archaeological community, which can increase the quality and remove limits.

Visitando il Museo Egizio di Torino si ha la possibilità di ammirare moltissimi papiri che, tuttavia, sono solo una minima parte dell’enorme patrimonio papiraceo totale che ammonta a quasi 700 manoscritti interi o riassemblati e oltre 17.000 frammenti. Numeri così alti palesano le grandi difficoltà nella conservazione e nello studio di documenti antichi di millenni e, di conseguenza, molto fragili. Per chi non lo sapesse, ormai da più di un anno, è possibile previa registrazione, consultare tutti questi antichi papiri tramite il database online.

In Archeofoss 2020, Sophie C. Schmidt and Florian Thiery presented a project on digitization and provision of Irish monoliths inscribed with Ogham script in Wikidata as Linked Open Data (LOD) (abstract in https://zenodo.org/record/4002961#.YHgzlOgzaUk).

The standard work on Ogham inscriptions is the volume of the Corpus Inscriptionum Insularum Celticarum, which describes two different types of words: formula words and nomenclature words. The combinations of these two types leads to inscriptions that feature kinship or tribal relations. This information occurs as a linked-graph-network.

The goal of the working group ‘Research Squirrel Engineers’ (http://squirrel.link) is to create a workflow for digitizing the analogue data and publish the stones as LOD, reproduction of analyses based on the analog CIIC catalog and enhance the database with Linked Open Data available online.

The aim is to discuss the pros and cons, as well as the challenges of the strategies. This includes the major challenge and possibility of citizen science vs. data sovereignty.

Archeofoss 2020 presented SITAR (Sistema Informativo Territoriale Archeologico di Roma – Archaeological Territorial Information System of Rome, https://beniculturali.academia.edu/Progetto­SITAR), by Mirella Serlorenzi, Riccardo Montalbano, Ascanio D’Andrea and Carlo Cifarellia (abstract in https://zenodo.org/record/4002961#.YHgzlOgzaUk).

In Archeofoss 2020, Katia Roesler, Frederic Auth, Wenke Domscheit and Kerstin P. Hofmann presented on the role of editions of objects and their specific form of publication in archaeological science and in comparative and classifying research (abstract in https://zenodo.org/record/4002961#.YHgzlOgzaUk).

Descriptio Romae è un archivio realizzato con una semplice tecnologia sapientemente utilizzata, basata sull’archiviazione digitale georeferenziata che consente di consultare facilmente i documenti relativi ai catasti storici su Roma nel settecento e ottocento.
