The Epigraphic Database Heidelberg contains the texts of Latin and bilingual (i.e. Latin-Greek) inscriptions of the Roman Empire. The epigraphic monuments are collected and kept up to date on the basis of modern research. With the help of search functions specific queries can be carried out - e.g. a search for words in inscriptions and / or particular descriptive data. The search results are often displayed together with photos and drawings.

The geographic focus is provided by the provinces of the Roman Empire. The total number of records rises continuously.

The Research Project is made up of four constituent databases

• Epigraphic Text Database (last update, list of fully completed provinces)

• Photographic Database (last update)

• Bibliographic Database (last update)

• Geographic Database (last update)

All data of the Open Data Repository by the Epigraphic Database Heidelberg can be reused under the CC BY-CA 4.0 license

EDH is a partner project of EAGLE (Electronic Archive of Greek and Latin Epigraphy) and a project partner of EAGLE (Europeana network of Ancient Greek and Latin Epigraphy) and PELAGIOS.
