EpiDoc XML files of the Marmor Parium

EpiDoc

This repository collects XML versions of the following editions of the Greek text of the Parian Marble encoded according to the EpiDoc Guidelines:

The text of the Parian Marble is characterized by Attic acrophonic numerals to express the number of years that elapse from 264/63 BC and to express people's ages. These numerals are encoded according to the EpiDoc guidelines: see Dates, Dating Formulae, Ages and Acrophonic numbers.

The acrophonic numbers five (𐅃) and fifty (𐅄) are encoded with their correspondent HTML entitites (𐅃 and 𐅄) for reasons of portability, because not every font and editor can display them.
