The focus is particularly on mechanisms introduced for linking lexical information to other information bits either internally or externally, e.g. for creating attestations by linking lexical forms to their variants in relevant inscriptions, as well as for linking lexical data to external independent LOD datasets available on a remote endpoint. Finally, in the conclusions, we briefly introduce some future planned or desired enhancements as well as the final platform component, a parallel interface that constitutes the fruition application, which will be open to anyone on the web and will allow for browsing, searching, cross-querying and visualising the created set of interlinked resources.","keywords":["eLexicography","Ancient languages","Linguistic Linked Open Data","Digital historical linguistics"],"pages":"1-12","url":"https:\/\/publications.cnr.it\/doc\/485252","volume":"","doi":"","editors_people":"Kiril Simov and Petya Osenova","editors":["Simov, K.","Osenova, P."],"published":"Proceedings of the CLaDA-BG 2023 Conference: Language Technologies and Digital Humanities: Resources and Applications (LTaDH-RA), Sofia, Bulgaria, 10-12 May 2023","publisher":"CEUR-WS. org (Aachen, DEU)","issn":"","isbn":"","conference_name":"","conference_place":"","conference_date":""},{"id":343201,"last_updated":"2023-07-10 10:33:07","id_people":472419,"institutes":["ILC"],"type":"conference_article","type_order":5,"type_people":"conferenceObject","title":"From Inscriptions to Lexica and Back: A Platform for Editing and Linking the Languages of Ancient Italy","year":2022,"authors_people":"Valeria Quochi, Andrea Bellandi, Fahad Khan, Michele Mallia, Francesca Murano, Silvia Piccini, Luca Rigobianco, Alessandro Tommasi, Cesare Zavattari","authors_cnr":["Mallia, Michele","Zavattari, Cesare","Quochi, Valeria","Bellandi, Andrea","Piccini, Silvia","Khan, Anas Fahad Aslam"],"authors_cnr_id":["11893","17627","17738","18790"],"authors_cnr_institute":[""],"authors":["Quochi, V.","Bellandi, A.","Khan, F.","Mallia, M.","Murano, F.","Piccini, S.","Rigobianco, L.","Tommasi, A.","Zavattari, C."],"abstract":"Available language technology is hardly applicable to scarcely attested ancient languages, yet their digital semantic representation, though challenging, is an asset for the purpose of sharing and preserving existing cultural knowledge. In the context of a project on the languages and cultures of ancient Italy, we took up this challenge. This paper thus describes the development of a user friendly web platform, EpiLexO, for the creation and editing of an integrated system of language resources for ancient fragmentary languages centered on the lexicon, in compliance with current digital humanities and Linked Open Data principles. EpiLexo allows for the editing of lexica with all relevant cross-references: for their linking to their testimonies, as well as to bibliographic information and other (external) resources and common vocabularies. The focus of the current implementation is on the languages of ancient Italy, in particular Oscan, Faliscan, Celtic and Venetic; however, the technological solutions are designed to be general enough to be potentially applicable to different contexts and scenarios.","keywords":["Digital Epigraphy","Restsprachen","Lexicon Editing and Linking","tools for DH"],"pages":"59-67","url":"https:\/\/aclanthology.org\/2022.lt4hala-1.0\/","volume":"","doi":"","editors_people":"Sprugnoli, Rachele; Passarotti, Marco","editors":["Sprugnoli, R.","Passarotti, M."],"published":"Proceedings of the Second Workshop on Language Technologies for Historical and Ancient Languages (LT4HALA 2022)","publisher":"European language resources association (ELRA) (Paris, FRA)","issn":"","isbn":"979-10-95546-78-8","conference_name":"Second Workshop on Language Technologies for Historical and Ancient Languages (LT4HALA 2022)","conference_place":"Marseille, France","conference_date":"25\/06\/2022"},{"id":343203,"last_updated":"2023-07-10 09:45:37","id_people":472422,"institutes":["ILC"],"type":"conference_article","type_order":5,"type_people":"conferenceObject","title":"Supporting Ancient Historical Linguistics and Cultural Studies with EpiLexO","year":2022,"authors_people":"Valeria Quochi, Andrea Bellandi, Michele Mallia, Alessandro Tommasi and Cesare Zavattari","authors_cnr":["Mallia, Michele","Zavattari, Cesare","Quochi, Valeria","Bellandi, Andrea"],"authors_cnr_id":["11893","17627"],"authors_cnr_institute":[""],"authors":["Quochi, V.","Bellandi, A.","Mallia, M.","Tommasi, A.","Zavattari, C."],"abstract":"This contribution presents a system of independent software components meant to support the creation of ecosystems of interrelated language data (i.e. lexica linked to textual testimonies, concepts, metadata, bibliographic references, and other external lexical resources) according to the current state-of-the-art representational models for the semantic web. The system is implemented as a set of autonomous servers exposing Restful APIs that in principle can serve different frontend applications and use cases. In this work they serve the EpiLexO GUI application designed and geared to support scholars of ancient languages of fragmentary attestation in their studies. The development of both the back-ends and the front-end is still work-in progress, but a first version is ready for use.","keywords":["tools for DH","ancient languages","restsprachen","lexicon editor","corpus management","lexicon-text linking"],"pages":"39-43","url":"https:\/\/office.clarin.eu\/v\/CE-2022-2118-CLARIN2022_ConferenceProceedings.pdf","volume":"ISSN 2773-2177","doi":"","editors_people":"Erjavec, T.; Eskevich, M","editors":["Erjavec, T.","Eskevich, M."],"published":"CLARIN Annual Conference Proceedings 2022","publisher":"","issn":"","isbn":"","conference_name":"CLARIN Annual Conference 2022","conference_place":"Prague, Czechia","conference_date":"10-12\/10\/2022"},{"id":355806,"last_updated":"2023-07-12 11:52:47","id_people":479194,"institutes":["ILC"],"type":"conference_misc","type_order":6,"type_people":"conferenceObject","title":"Challenges in Encoding Fragmentary Attested Languages","year":2022,"authors_people":"Anna Marinetti; Francesca Murano; Valeria Quochi; Monica Ballerini, Federico Boschetti, Angelo Mario Del Grosso, Silvia Piccini, Luca Rigobianco, Patrizia Solinas, Mariarosaria Zinzi; Michele Mallia; Edoardo Middei","authors_cnr":["Mallia, Michele","Quochi, Valeria","Boschetti, Federico","Piccini, Silvia","Del Grosso, Angelo Mario"],"authors_cnr_id":["11893","14630","17738","17769"],"authors_cnr_institute":[""],"authors":["Marinetti, A.","Murano, F.","Quochi, V.","Ballerini, M.","Boschetti, F.","Del Grosso, A.
