Epigraphische Datenbank zum antiken Kleinasien

The EDAK (Epigraphische Datenbank zum antiken Kleinasien) project, based at the Department of Ancient History at the University of Hamburg, aims to collect the widely dispersed published Greek and Latin inscriptions from Asia Minor (the western regions of Turkiye) and to present them in a database accompanied by descriptions, translations and brief commentaries.

Currently, the database contains over 6,000 inscriptions from ancient Lydia, Galatia, Paphlagonia, Phrygia, and Proseilemmene. Work is ongoing to include additional regions. Following a recent technical update, the inscription data is now available in the TEI/EpiDoc format. Further information can be found under the menu item About.

Current update:
The beta version of the updated EDAK is now online. Please note that some display or functional issues may still occur—for example, in the presentation of bibliographical references, dating information, interactive maps, or EpiDoc markup of inscription texts. We kindly ask for your understanding and patience as we continue to address these limitations.
