PoBLAM is an abbreviation for “Poésie Biblique Latine de l’ Antiquité au Moyen-Âge (IVe-XIIIe s.) entre intertextualité et réception grammaticale“ – Latin Biblical Poetry in Antiquity and the Middle Ages (4th-13th century) between Intertextuality and Grammatical Reception. PoBLAM results from the cooperation of a French and a German group of researchers. In 2019, on the one hand, this group founded GIRPAM (Groupe International de Recherches sur la Poésie de l’Antiquité tardive et du Moyen-Âge, coordinated by Michele Cutino, Strasbourg, and Bruno Bureau, Lyon, some members come from Wuppertal, too) as an alliance of (junior and senior) researchers interested in Christian (mainly Latin, but also Greek) poetry of Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. On the other hand, the group organized two international conferences on ancient and (early) medieval Christian Poetry, one in Strasbourg (2018), entitled “Poetry, Bible and Theology from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages”, and one in Wuppertal (2019), entitled “Das Alte Testament in der Dichtung der Antike. Paraphrase, Exegese, Intertextualität und Figurenzeichnung”, financed by DFG. The project PoBLAM is intended to continue and to deepen these research efforts. The pivot of the project is the interaction of theology and exegesis on the one hand and the origin and development of an explicitly Christian poetry from classical pagan formal literary traditions on the other hand. This interaction does not only cause poetic and poetological innovations (as, for example, the origin of the biblical epic as literary genre), but also bears wide-ranging consequences in what concerns socio-cultural issues, education, and literature. Furthermore, this process finds material expression in manuscripts (we find, e.g., collections of examples for grammar lessons and classroom-orientated glosses added to Christian poetic texts) reflecting the reality of medieval classrooms. Altogether, the reception of Christian poetry brings about a fundamental change of what literature is supposed to be between Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. This change, however, leaves its indelible marks in later European culture. The linguistic and cultural setting of PoBLAM is first and foremost late antique and medieval Latin Christian poetry. In some issues, however, Greek poetry will be taken into account, too, in order to allow a comparative analysis of the situation in the Greek and the Latin world. PoBLAM has three main research interests: a) meta-intertextual structures in biblical poetry from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages, b) the impact of biblical poetry and Christian poetry in general on social life, culture, and forming of identity within Europe during the transition from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages, c) forms of reception of biblical poetry from Late Antiquity to

For many years, cultural property in general and archaeological artefacts in particular have become currencies for small-scale trafficking to terrorist financing or money laundering means for mafia organizations. The challenge of the NOSE project is to be able to implement a technical solution to protect archaeological objects as well as those involved in the preservation of these properties: from the archaeological excavation team to the museum curator. It is therefore a question of proposing a robust, durable and easily usable solution on an excavation site. In this context, a solution based on inks containing nanometric markers is envisaged. This ink will offer different levels of protection and will be easily usable by end users, i.e. archaeologists, museum curators and Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs).

Sharing and reuse of archaeological or historical data: a RDF-based description according to semantic web repositories and standards The HisArc-RDF project brings together a multidisciplinary consortium: archaeology, history, geography, terminology, bibliography and informatics. The pooling of experiences, based on the sharing and articulation of methods and software and semantic tools developed in each discipline, will make it possible to prototype (implementation and iterative tests) a "FAIR" operating chain on structurally and semantically heterogeneous archaeological and historical data sets: - to write a data management plan (DMP) for each dataset, based on the recommendations of the European Union and the french National Open Science Plan; - to develop two softwares : the first one operating a webservice between the OntoME tools (matching ontologies tool) designed by a community of historians and Opentheso (aligning thesauri tool) designed with a community of archaeologists; the second one creating a generic supervised automatic alignment interface between Opentheso and any semantic web repository; - to document each test set by a fine-grained processing chain, based on the use of microthesauri, descriptor concepts aligned with semantic web repositories, and then on the matching of the ontology expressed by the thesauri with the reference standards and ontologies of the documentary and scientific communities; thanks to the software developed, this phase will lead to a RDF-structured description of the test datasets; thus allowing, after online publication, the reporting and direct reuse ("calculability") of the datas; - to lead a wide network of historical and archaeological stakeholders (repository supports, multidisciplinary research groups, programmed and preventive archaeologies, European and non-European sites, academic and private stakeholders) through a training programme and experimental workshops, in order to disseminate the good practices supported and expressed by the operating chain and the tools developed during the project. The foundation of the HisArc-RDF project is threefold: a convergence of views born from the confrontation of multidisciplinary practices and experiences around the life cycle of data, from its acquisition to its publication, sharing and mediation; an acculturation of archaeological and historical communities to the practical and scientific challenge of aligning their vocabularies on semantic web core repositories; and finally the need for a processing chain capable of appropriation by these communities - i. e.i.e. as close as possible to business practices and work in the field and laboratories. The outcome of the project will be the realization and open publication of a methodology and associated tools in order to implement in our disciplines an ecosystem of "FAIR" data production, publication and sharing. It will be based on a proof of concept: the targeted user experience is the sharing and effective reuse of data extracted from recording systems (raw data), regardless of the structure specific to a particular database; it is the responsibility of each operating interface/visualization to pick them up and configure them to allow their reuse. The rapid implementation of these linked open data will be at the service of the widest possible academic audience: students, museums and research teams.

The collection of Greek inscriptions preserved in the Louvre Museum was set up at random by acquisitions, seizures, grants and transfers since the time of Louis the 14th. It includes some 600 documents distributed over about 10 centuries, from the sixth century BC to fourth century AD. Given the chronological, geographical and thematic variety of these texts and the intrinsic originality of many of their supports - stelae, architectural elements, statues and other votive objects, the scientific and patrimonial interest of this set is unquestionable. But it is also a quite ideal sample in order to produce an innovative prototypal edition that may benefit from the visibility provided simultaneously by several linked websites, intended for different audiences and purposes, and by a new presentation of part of the collection in the Museum.The E-PIGRAMME (Epigraphy and Museography: Digital Publishing and Cultural Mediation of the Collection of Greek inscriptions in the Louvre) Program that we present today to the ANR is the « Product Launch Phase », enriched with new dimensions, of a project which was submitted to the international jury of the Institut Universitaire de France and endorsed at the end of 2009 by the appointment of Michele Brunet to the IUF as a Senior member. The partnership that is formed at the intersection of Philology, Art History, Archeology and Ancient history to carry out this digital publication and new museography brings together two research laboratories, UMR 5189 History and Sources of the Ancient world (HiSoMA), Coordinator, and UMR 8210 Anthropology and History of the Ancient world (ANHIMA) along with the Department of Greek Roman and Etruscans Antiquities at the Louvre Museum (Dager) and the French School at Athens (EfA). Our common approach is based on two convictions: the scholarly disciplines such as Epigraphy and History of ancient Art have their full place in the dynamics of Digital Humanities. They allow the flow of data and the exchange of knowledge on an unprecedented scale and also permit to address to other publics than specialists alone. But digital technology in scientific publishing reconfigures the entire editorial chain and enforces the academic know-how to be translated into new professional processes. This is why innovations induced by these electronic tools are the best opportunity for developing a research about technology and the shape to be given to digital publication of Greek inscriptions. In fact, the use of this new form of publication and new way of dissemination gives the opportunity to consider the epigraphical documents in all their dimensions, no longer separating the texts from the monuments and from the contextual evidence, considering them as Visible Words and Works of Art intended to be seen as well as read. This experimental research is necessarily collaborative, and will be conducted under the supervision of an advisory board in which the (small) community of Digital Classicists will therefore be well represented. But it is also essential to connect this research program with scholarly training, linking it directly to the network of experts and international collaborations that it contributes to create. For this purpose, the French School at Athens offers a very adequate frame. Indeed, the EfA provides guarantee of some continuity beyond the end of the program ; it gives also institutional validation to the project and encourages further developments for digital publication of Greek inscriptions by initiating a conference designed to lay foundations for a real international collaboration in this academical field.

During the first half of the first millennium BC, Cyprus was divided in about ten autonomous polities, attested by primary sources (inscriptions and coins) as well as by secondary sources (Greek and Near Eastern texts). While the time of their emergence remains disputed, their disappearance can be dated towards the end of the 4th c. BC when the unified island became a province of Ptolemaic Egypt. Paradoxically, the political fragmentation of the island, which has characterized its long history, has hardly been analysed in its concrete aspects: the territories of the various kingdoms, their limits, their mode of organization (most notably their relationship with the capital-cities) and their diachronic evolution. Researching a regional case study through a multidisciplinary approach, our project aims to go beyond theoretical models. It brings together historians and archaeologists (specialists of material culture and of spatial analysis) for an entirely unique project based on ongoing, interconnected studies of three different kingdoms and tackles the complex issue of cultural and political territories on a new, regional scale. The polities of Kition, Idalion and Tamassos constitute a particularly relevant case study for several reasons. First, the three kingdoms are well documented by historical sources (literary texts and inscriptions): we know that during the Classical period (5th-4th c. BC) the kings of Kition, gained control over Idalion and Tamassos. They are also three singular kingdoms: according to traditional historiography, Kition is the model of the "Phoenician" kingdom; Idalion and Tamassos are "Greek" inland kingdoms without direct access to maritime trade. Furthermore, the three cities and their immediate surroundings are well explored by archaeology, with varied contexts (necropoleis, sanctuaries, domestic areas, palaces, secondary settlements) and abundant material evidence. Finally, they are sites where French and German teams lead field projects. In order to comprehend the history of the three kingdoms, their interrelations as well as the organization of their territorial space in the longue durée, we will mobilize all archaeological and historical sources, by crossing them and by resorting to various disciplinary approaches. The aim is to establish a first milestone for a renewed history of Cyprus in the Iron Age that is attentive to the complexity of regional developments. This first, thorough and comparative study of three neighbouring polities will pave the way for future research on Cypriot kingdoms.
