Abstract
In the context of the fruitful collaboration between PAThs, an ERC funded project, and LAD, the Laboratory for Digital Archaeology at Sapienza University of Rome, an experimental attempt to link places being described in the Archaeological Atlas of Coptic Literature, developed into a road graph for Late Antique Egypt. Desktop GIS software is used to build and update the graph following different sources and methodologies and the resulting data have been thereafter published online as open access. A single page application was built and is available to provide a graphical user interface to access data and use the graph to calculate directions from one place to another. The project opened and shared with the broad community of scholars for further development.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
