Browse and search functions:
in this online version of DĀMOS it is possible to browse the transliterations of the Mycenaean texts and to perform word searches and word co-occurrence searches in the whole corpus or in a desired subgroup
For each document you will get text, notes,
metadata and a first basic bibliography.
- Highlight Changes
By clicking on "Highlight Changes" it's possible to see the part of a text (or of its classification) which, due to joins or new readings, was changed in its newest edition, be it in a corpus edition or in a dedicated journal article (sources are quoted in the notes and in the general literature list). This is particularly relevant for the texts from Pylos (for which many new joins have been published since their last edition in 1973) and for the texts from Knossos (for which a new translitteration has just been published, see the section on the texts in DAMOS).
- Notes:
The notes are also being tagged for their topic (like, e.g., hand attribution or chronology), so that this will also be available for searches in a future version of DĀMOS. Here follows a list of tags and abbreviations that currently appear in the text of the notes and that might be helpful for the user:
