Description |
Abstract |
By describing the case study of a large collection of Assyrian tablets, this chapter illustrates the benefits of digital curation and textual analysis for re-establishing the missing context of looted and unprovenienced ancient artifacts. It tackles the main theme of heritage at-risk from a different perspective than other chapters in the book. The author details the creation of an ontological structure for data analysis using digital curation methods combined with innovative machine learning and network analysis and visualization techniques. The result is an important new research tool for scholars focusing on reinterpreting ancient Assyrian cuneiform writing from unprovenienced texts. |
