Introduction

A rich production of epigraphic poetry written in Greek flourished in the territories of the Greco-Roman world during the Imperial age (late 1st century BC-3rd century AD). A corpus of about two-thousand Greek metrical inscriptions exhibits significant diversity in the geographical, socio-historical, archaeological contexts, and the literary aspects. Indeed, a wide range of poetic forms is written and enjoyed by authors, clients, and recipients from various socio-cultural backgrounds.

There is currently no repository that allows for easy collection of data on the inscriptions from the corpus. The inscriptions are indeed scattered across various editions, which are often incomplete due to the discovery of new inscriptions following publication. The aim of the database is to gather the Greek metrical inscriptions from the Imperial Age into a single collection, providing the following data: the geographic provenance, the edition(s), the dating, the type of inscription (/literary genre), the clients and recipients, the author (when known), the type of meter, the length of the text, the epigraphic support (with references to the images), the layout (in relation to the metrical structure), external links to the other epigraphy related websites. The database will enable the collection of the entire corpus of the Greek metrical inscriptions from the Imperial age. It will be possible to expand the corpus at any time, whether new inscriptions are discovered or new editions of already known inscriptions are published. By including external links, a network of digital resources will be created. In this way, it will be easier to have access to the production of Greek epigraphic poetry from the Imperial age, in its various literary forms, and diverse geographical, archaeological, and socio-historical contexts.

The project has been initiated by Pietro Ortimini (University of Pisa) and currently revolves around the data he has collected within the scope of his doctoral thesis on the literary forms and metrics of the Greek metrical inscriptions from the Imperial Age (late first century BC-third century AD). As a future perspective, it would be desirable to expand the database to include the Greek metrical inscriptions from the Archaic and Classical Period, Hellenistic Period and Late Antiquity.

Dating (P5)

The period under consideration ranges from the late first century BC to the early fourth century AD. The span of centuries under consideration is bounded by the reforms of Augustus and the reforms of Diocletian and Constantine.

The following types of dating are distinguished:

1. Inscriptions dated to a specific year or within a span of years less than a century.
2. Inscriptions dated by centuries.
3. Inscriptions dated to the Imperial Period (first-third century AD), contrasting with the Hellenistic Period (third-first century BC) and the Late Antique Period (fourth-seventh century AD).
4. Inscriptions dated between the end of the Hellenistic Period (late first century BC) and the beginning of the Imperial Period (first century AD), or between the end of the Imperial Period (late third century AD) and the beginning of Late Antiquity (fourth century AD).
5. Inscriptions with uncertain dating between the Hellenistic Period and the Imperial Period or between the Imperial Period and Late Antiquity.
6. Inscriptions dated with generic terms like Kaiserzeit, Römische Zeit, aetatis imperialis, Imperial Age, époque imperiale, età imperiale, etc., without distinguishing between the Imperial Period and Late Antiquity.
7. Undated inscriptions.

Based on these types of dating, inscriptions are divided into two groups:

• A : Inscriptions falling under types 1-4, dateable to the Imperial Age with a reasonable margin of certainty.
• B : Inscriptions falling under types 5-6, assignable to the Imperial era with a low margin of certainty.
• C: undated inscriptions (type 7)

Types of inscriptions (P6)

• Epitaphs
• Honorific inscriptions / celebrative inscriptions
• Dedications, Prayers, Hymns
• Oracles
• Ritual inscriptions, informative/didactic inscriptions
• exhortatory inscriptions, warnings, curses

Layout (P15)

1. A.1 The layout does not follow the metrical structure

   A.1a The layout does not follow the metrical structure and no attention is paid to word endings (e.g. GVCyr008)

   A.1b The layout does not follow the metrical structure and attention is paid to word endings / certain parts of the text are highlighted (e.g. GVCyr051)

2. A.2 The layout follows the metrical structure

   A.2a 1 line = 1 verse (e.g. I.Egypte métriques 26)

   eisthesis of pentameters (e.g. I.Egypte métriques 68) / vacat at the central caesura (e.g. IG IV²,1 436 )

   A.2b Verses written as prose, with vacat and/or signs (e.g. colon, dicolon, hedera, diple), which indicate the end of the verse (e.g. IG XIV 2564)

   A.2c Verses arranged on multiple (two/three) lines

   A.2c.1 Verses arranged on two/three lines without eisthesis of the second/third line, with vacat and/or sign to indicate the end of the verse (e.g. IG IX 1², 4, 1498 )

   A.2c.2 Verses arranged on two/three lines with eisthesis of the second/third line and possibly vacat and/or sign to indicate the end of the verse (e.g. IGUR III 1163, I.Mus. Catania 24)

   A.2.c.3 Mixed layout types A.2.c.1-A.2.c.4 (e.g. IG IX 1², 4, 1497)

   A.2c.1-3 Verse division based on the caesurae (this subcategory includes inscriptions that exhibit verse division based on caesuras in at least 50% of the verses, e.g. I.Egypte métriques 49, Steinepigramme 06/02/20, Peek, GVI 588)

   A.3 Mixed layout types A.1-A.2a-c.1-3 (e.g. IGUR III 1272)
