The Ancient People group is a forum and mailing list for the discussion of issues related to prosopography, biography, genealogy, onomastics and other person-data from the ancient and historical worlds, especially with reference to linked open data, big data, and other digital humanities approaches. Much discussion in the past has arisen from the LAWDI and SNAP projects, but all communities and initiatives in the areas of ancient people are welcome and on-topic.
