+++CtG event+++ Bytes and Bygones, Vortrag: Preserving Digital Humanities Data on the Ancient World

15.09.2025 - 18.09.2025

The CTG research team will present their groundbreaking work on digital preservation challenges at the upcoming Bytes and Bygones – Digital and Computational Analyses of Ancient Cultures conference in Brussels. 

The presentation will showcase findings from an analysis of 200+ digital projects featuring ancient Greek, Coptic, Aramaic, and other non-Latin scripts. Three key vulnerabilities emerge: technical limitations in script encoding, insufficient sustainable hosting solutions, and academic structures that fail to prioritize digital preservation. Through compelling case studies, the team demonstrates how even prominent projects frequently disappear after funding ends, cutting off access to vital scholarly resources and historical materials.
