Abstract

Melissa Terras's monograph deals with the complex process of reading ancient documents from a humanities computing perspective. The book focuses on the methodological and technical issues behind the implementation of a system that helps historians read tablets written in Old Roman Cursive script found at the Roman fort of Vindolanda (dating from AD 90 to 120).
