Additional Credits

The project has been made possible by a legion of contributors who have worked to lemmatize texts; these are credited in the individual entries on the “About Texts” page.

Data for some ancient texts were generously provided by the Laboratoire d'Analyse Statistique des Langues Anciennes at the Université de Liège. The development of The Bridge was made possible by the financial support of Haverford College (2014-2022), a Program Grant from the Classical Association of the Atlantic States (2015)  a Mellon Digital Humanities Grant (2014-2015).
