The Pelagios Network
The Pelagios Network (https://pelagios.org/) is a community of researchers, scientists and curators using Linked Data methods and tools to investigate the past.
- Dear all, we have a shiny new website pelagios.org. We hope that it does a better job of setting out who we are, what we do, and why you might want to join us.
- Join us for Linked Pasts 11, "Linking Knowledge Through Place: ISHI, WHG, & the Future of Gazetteer Collaboration", Tues 9 Dec 15:00 GMT. The @whgazetteer.org will introduce the new Institute for Spatial History Innovation and highlight recent WHG developments. Sign up here forms.gle/dzSq2GibT17n...
- Wanted: #GLAM curators and project leaders for testing an automated image enrichment pipeline machina.rainersimon.io #galleries #libraries #archives #museums
- Tomorrow (Wed) 14:00 GMT is our Annotation December Stammtisch, at which Rocio Da Riva (Barcelona) will discuss RelNet — a project exploring sacred landscapes and the connections between Babylonian cult centres. Join us to hear about all the issues of annotating cuneiform texts with digital tools

- Reposted by The Pelagios NetworkWant an easy way to edit the output from Dots.OCR? Introducing Dots.OCR editor, an easy way to edit outputs from the model. Features: 1) Edit bounding boxes 2) Edit OCR 3) Edit reading order 4) Group sections (good for newspapers) Vibe coded with Claude 4.5 github.com/wjbmattingly...
- Check out @museologi.st 's awesome stuff (done on his own dime) — a map demo of Roman Republican coins reported to the Portable Antiquities Scheme republican-coins.museologi.st#/?/?/?/mode=..., with links to loads of data sources (Nomisma, Wikidata), all code on github.com/portableant/... #maps

- Starting in 10 minutes - our Fall plenary with @miaout.bsky.social on Pitfalls and promises: AI & cultural heritage collections in 2025. Now that ‘using AI’ has gone from a difficult, bespoke process to something you can do on your browser, what should researchers be excited / anxious about & why?
- Reposted by The Pelagios NetworkAlso, if you are a scholar of the Ancient Near East, consider sending us your stuff! It will be published in our edited collection for Nature: www.nature.com/collections/...
- Work is coming together. The GitHub repo is being populated. Follow along here github.com/pelagios/llm...
- Sketching out the users and usability of the LLM infused LOD cookbook — the who, what, how? Courtesy of @miaout.bsky.social & co
- The final group working on applications — essentially, what can a cultural heritage professional do with the automated list of disambiguated named entities? But what's going on behind the curtain?
- Meanwhile, work continues furiously on articulating the following two stages of the LLM-LOD pipeline: the reconciliation process itself and then the evaluation of it
- Rob Sanderson explaining to a thoughtful-looking Leif Isaksen how our LLM pipeline for preparing the automated reconciliation of named entities to authority files (like Wikidata, Pleiades, Nomisma, etc.) is going to work.

- Day 3 of Enriching Digital Heritage with LLMs + LOD www.lorentzcenter.nl/enriching-di.... From NER to disambiguation: the data group using the latest tech to sketch out how MCPs can generate candidates for linking NER outputs to authority files
- In Leiden right now we've just begun a weeklong workshop on exploring the transformative potential of combining Large Language Models (LLMs) & Linked Open Data (LOD) to enrich cultural heritage metadata in ways that foster FAIR usage www.lorentzcenter.nl/enriching-di... Watch this space for outcomes

- You can find yourself in this #DH2025 state-of-the-union. In our small way, we are prioritizing "care over speed, sufficiency over spectacle, community over competition", by sharing knowledge, giving advice & building resilience into tool development (thanks to Partners like @performant.bsky.social)

- Also this from @museologi.st, from a few months back — upping again for those at #dh2025. Dan is a one-man punk cultural heritage operation.
- Retweeting with Dan's bluesky handle, @museologi.st, so that he can get the kudos he deserves — and in case this work is of interest to folks at #dh2025
- The amazing Dan Pett has been at it again. Using @aboutgeo.bsky.social liiive.now Dan explains how to DIY your own IIIF: add image to cms, create manifest, put manifest into Rainer's magic, download annotations, paste text into cms, manifest recreates. Try it yourself! museologi.st/blog/iiif-di...

- Reposted by The Pelagios NetworkImage annotation with LLMs is a big trend at #DH2025. Work being done across several projects, including our humble poster tomorrow, featuring work on emblem classification and RAG with Michela Vignoli at AIT and @aboutgeo.bsky.social.

- Pelagios is proud to count Performant & Rainer as Partners. Together, we are trying to build methods/tools for annotating & structuring data "in the round", where different Partners contribute knowledge, resource and/or funding, towards distributive resilience. Join our community of practice #dh2025

- The awesome Dan Pett's talk for Historic England on digital innovation in heritage is here museologi.st/talks/he-lin... featuring work for The British Museum, The Portable Antiquities Scheme, The Fitzwilliam Museum, etc. Nearly all the resources he discusses are open source, reproducible & low cost
- Reposted by The Pelagios NetworkStatus and new directions of my Geographic Lens on Stories (GLOS) project: kgeographer.org/glos_creatio.... Now focused on concept schema induction. Recent pilot product for exploring canonical folklore motif and tale type indexes ATU <-> TMI: glos.kgeographer.org. An About page there tells more.
- Check out this app leifuss.github.io/ravenclaw/, as Pelagiosian Leif Isaksen uses web mapping to explore the relationship between the Peutinger Map & the Ravenna Cosmography. Code: github.com/leifuss/rave.... Future work: create a spatial edition toolkit? Get in touch if interested. #maps #mapping
