Submissions for ARIADNE (Advanced Research Infrastructure for Archaeological Dataset Networking in Europe)

Description

The ARIADNE Research Infrastructure AISBL (ARIADNE RI) is a not-for-profit association that continues the work of ARIADNEplus (2018-22) and the previous ARIADNE Integrating Activity (2012-16). These projects established a Linked Open Data triplestore, also searchable via a portal interface, providing access to over 4m rich data resources. Encompassing the archaeology and heritage of 4 continents and over 40 countries, resources range from the archaeology of the earliest hominids to the present day. Data is modelled using the CIDOC CRM-compatible ARIADNE Catalogue Ontology (AO-Cat) and stored as RDF in a GraphDB triplestore, which can be queried via a public SPARQL endpoint.
