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:
Classics Links of Broad Scope, Texts, Universities, Colleges,
Schools, Links to Special Fields and Resources: Archaeology, Ancient
Sites and Monuments, Art and Architecture, Associations and Professional
Organisations, Computer Software, Conferences, Directories, Electronic

http://www.omnibusol.com/ancient.html (18.02.2000)
This is a very rich list addressed mostly to the general public,

ancients", The Glory that was Greece, The Power that was Rome, The
challenge that was Christianity, Ancient Cultures: Spanning and
Connecting.

Charta Caerulea Petri Henrici Barreda
http://www.ub.es/llati/petrus07.htm (17.02.2000)
The collection of this page represents the one hundred most visited
web sites concerning Latin. Ipso facto we find among them many sites
concerning classical antiquity in general. Nevertheless, there are too
many sites of little or no relevance to the specialist. P. E. Barreda

Verboven. Each site is described and often introduced with large
extracts from the presentation of the site itself. This is particularly
valuable as the site’s aim and character become more comprehensible.

Getting started and staying updated. Gateways and sites of
information. Heuristics: Electronic Texts. Epigraphy. Papyrology,
Numismatics, Ceramics. Heuristic resources 'off-line'. Looking for books
and articles?: Bibliographies, reviews, publication lists and tables of
contents. Bibliographies off line, Publishers' catalogues. Library

and Medieval Studies, General Scholarly Tools.
