Digitization of the Inscriptions on the Monuments of Armenian Cultural Heritage in Nagorno-Karabakh Region

Tamrazyan, Hamest  
July 1, 2023
Digital Humanities 2023. Collaboration as Opportunity. (DH2023)

This article discusses the efforts of the DH LAB (EPFL) to preserve Armenian cultural heritage in Artsakh, particularly inscriptions on monuments in the Nagorno-Karabakh region. Using Digital Humanities (DH) technology, the project aims to collect, systematize, and digitize these inscriptions, creating 3D models where possible. The initiative addresses the lack of digital epigraphy applied to Armenian inscriptions, previously underrepresented in digital heritage efforts. The project has established a network of partners in Armenia and Artsakh, and has begun creating a searchable inscriptions database, integrating essential information and translations. Challenges include editing texts, transcription accuracy, and developing a critical apparatus. The project also focuses on creating Linked Open Data and expanding to include Armenian epigraphic heritage in Ukraine, aiming to build a comprehensive corpus of Armenian inscriptions globally.
