Mission Impossible. Mapping the Classical Web: A Meta-Guide Through the Classical Link Collections
(Athanasios Sideris, Issue 1 / 2001)

Classical Antiquity became, very early on, one of the fields that attracted the interest of people dealing with the Internet and the creation of web pages dedicated to culture and history. Undoubtedly this was to be expected, as Classical Antiquity still represents a crucial and thorny question for Western society. The relationship of the modern Westerner to the culture of Greece and Rome embodies the culmination of complex proceedings and concepts, which can be traced back to the age of Enlightment, to the Renaissance and even to the Antiquity itself. All the various explanations of this relationship, its ceaseless redefinitions and inevitable refutations do nothing but reaffirm its fundamental position in the structure of Western thought.

Much has been written about this subject, both laudatory and pejorative. It should come as no surprise, therefore, that from a very early stage, Classicists were intrigued by the New Technologies and were more flexible in their approach than most of their colleagues in the Humanities1. It has been argued that this position owes much to Classical Archaeologists, who had for long been accustomed to the intrusion of technology in the adyton of their discipline2; indeed, geophysical methods of survey, radiocarbon dating, thermoluminescence dating and other techniques have been increasingly adopted since the fifties.

Whatever it was that influenced Classicists, the fact is that after a brief period of theoretical considerations about the use of the new medium3, the web became a tool in the service of teachers and students, excavators and researchers who used it to publish their original studies. In the beginning the ratio between relevant scholarly material and "garbage" on the web was heartbreaking. But nowadays a huge quantity of primary sources (ancient authors, inscriptions, coins, excavation reports), many reference works (i.e. PECS, Liddel-Scott, Suida, Leake's Northern Greece, etc.), and an ever-growing number of scholarly publications are already available4. Navigation on the web became easier but finding what you are looking for remains, in some aspects, a Herculean task. Indexes of available material were helpful, the first of which were issued only in printed version. The best of them soon moved from the printed page to the screen5. Thus appeared indexes on art and architecture, on military history, on gender studies, on museums and collections and many other topics. Private people first and, soon after, academic institutions created and maintained general indexes on Antiquity or the Classics that are usually called "link lists" or "gateways". The more explanatory such tools are the more useful they become, since the user needs to know not only where information relative to his search can be found but also what exactly he may expect there. The best indexes, some of which still appear in printed version, feature a comment for each site mentioned, often followed by the contents6.

Indexes that citie only other indexes instead of giving any information are called meta-indexes or meta-guides. They can be very helpful for beginners and for people searching for an unfamiliar topic, but let's not forget that "it is easy to surf around in them and never come across any real data"7.

What follows is such a meta-guide. It is addressed to people seeking pre-selected and organized material on the classical civilisations of Greece and Rome. During the last year the author has visited each of the gateways listed here but the links were last checked on the date appearing next to the electronic address. The choices of this list were only partially dictated by scholarly criteria, since need for technique reliability, efficient design and personal taste also raised their claims. Such choices, even coming from a long-addicted data web user, may have limited interest beyond their practical timesaving value.

http://lcweb.loc.gov/global/classics/claslink.html (20.02.2000)

A rich page on classical Antiquity may be found under the auspices of the Library of Congress. Though the choices are good, the list lacks the "healthy curiosity of the specialist"; on the other hand it is regularly updated and comprises the following sections:
