Description
The project "Coin Finds Hub - Italy / Rinvenimenti monetali in Italia", promoted by the University of Salerno and supported by national and international bodies, is aimed at the managing and cataloguing of coin records from archaeological contexts within the Italian territory, with the aim of organizing, sharing and reusing the data.
The project involves the construction of a digital platform between different descriptive ontologies (for coins, archaeological information and documentation), regulatory criteria and requirements relating to the research and interpretation of the numismatic record. This is favored by the adoption of a descriptive system which brings together both national cataloguing standards and the Nomisma ontology, increasingly widespread in the international numismatic community; this is also possible thanks to an adaptation of the Numishare system.
The current agreements and the areas concerned, the work plan and the first data on the thematic portals will be presented.
