Sign Lists is a sub-project of the Digital Corpus of Cuneiform Lexical Texts, directed by Niek Veldhuis (PI). Sign Lists publishes editions and translation of all cuneiform sign lists, dating from the middle of the third millennium until the end of the first millennium BCE.
Sign Lists is a member-project of the Open Richly Annotated Cuneiform Corpus (ORACC) consortium and utilizes the tools and standards developed for ORACC by Steve Tinney.
The project is supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities for the years 2013-2015. Updates and contributions by Christian Hess are supported by a Marie SkÅ‚odowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship [https://marie-sklodowska-curie-actions.ec.europa.eu/] (Grant Nr. 101063660) in the UMR 7041: Archéologies et sciences de l'antiquité of the CNRS in Nanterre for the period 2022–2024.
