title: InscriptiFact -- an image database of inscriptions and artifacts

description: The InscriptiFact Collection is designed to allow access via the Internet to high-resolution images of ancient inscriptions and artifacts, primarily from the Near Eastern and Mediterranean Worlds. The targeted inscriptions constitute some of the world’s earliest written records, which are mostly housed in a number of international museums and libraries, as well as field projects where inscriptions still remain in situ. Included, for example, are, selected Dead Sea Scrolls; cuneiform tablets from Mesopotamia, Persia, Canaan and Egypt; early Jewish papyri from Egypt; lapidary inscriptions, primarily from Jordan, Lebanon and Cyprus; inscriptions on a variety of hard media (e.g., ostraca, copper, semi-precious stones, jar handles) mostly written in early Canaanite, Phoenician, Hebrew, Aramaic, Ammonite and Edomite; and much more. These ancient texts are foundational documents that serve as a point of reference for Judaism, Christianity, Islam and the cultures out of which they emerged. The name "InscriptiFact" is intended to convey the concept of a scholarly archive based on "facts" about "inscriptions" and "artifacts." West Semitic Research Project (WSRP) under the auspices of the University of Southern California (USC) is broadly acknowledged as a leader in the application of photographic and digital technologies to capture and analyze data of ancient texts. The West Semitic Research image archive now contains approximately 1,500,000 images. Important!

title: High resolution vector polygons of the Antarctic coastline - VERSION 7.11

description: Coastline for Antarctica created from various mapping and remote sensing sources, provided as polygons with surface values for 'land', 'ice shelf', 'ice tongue', or 'rumple' attribute. Covering all land and ice shelves south of 60degS. Suitable for topographic mapping and analysis. High resolution versions of ADD data are suitable for scales larger than 1:1,000,000. The largest suitable scale is changeable and dependent on the region.
Changes in v7.11 include updates to the coastline of Adelaide Island and surrounding islands, the grounding line of Alexander Island and the surrounding region, and the ice shelf front of the Brunt Ice Shelf.
Data compiled, managed, and distributed by the Mapping and Geographic Information Centre and the UK Polar Data Centre, British Antarctic Survey, on behalf of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research.
description: Dataset compiled from a variety of Antarctic map and satellite image sources. The dataset was created using ArcGIS and QGIS GIS software programmes and has been checked for basic topography and geometry errors, but does not contain strict topology. Quality varies across the dataset, certain areas where high resolution source data were available are suitable for large scale maps, whereas other areas are only suitable for smaller scales. Each polygon contains a surface attribute with either 'land', 'ice shelf', 'ice tongue' or 'rumple'. Details of when and how each line was created can be found in the attributes of the high resolution polyline coastline dataset. Data sources range in time from the 1990s to 2025.

description: California History Through Armenian ExperiencesFocusing on the power of the individual story, "California History Through Armenian Experiences" oral history initiative by the USC Institute of Armenian Studies documents the diversity and history of Armenian presence in California. The interviews in this collection were conducted starting in 2018 and will continue through 2024, ranging from formal oral history interviews by trained interviewers, such as the Displaced Persons Documentation Project and the Armenian-American Experiences Oral History Project, to crowd-sourced interviews through the Institute’s “My Armenian Story” project. Narrators share their stories of migration, community-building in diaspora, personal experiences of world and regional events, and their individual and collective contributions to the social and cultural fabric of California and beyond. A number of interviews also contain digitized photographs and ephemera from the narrators’ personal collections. Displaced Persons Documentation ProjectThe USC Institute of Armenian Studies has been recording oral histories and gathering documents on the unique history of the Armenian displaced persons (DP) community formed during and after World War II. Many interviewees migrated to Southern California, with Montebello, California fostering a large number of diasporans eager to rebuild the connective tissues torn by war and displacement. This growing collection of oral histories and digitized documents is meant to serve as a primary source for researchers who are interested in World War II, post-Genocide Armenian history, and Diaspora Studies. The documentation and publication of oral histories in this collection is funded, in part, by the California State Library through the “California History through Armenian Experiences” project.
