Call for posters for the Fourth North American Congress of Greek and Latin Epigraphy (NACGLE IV) this January at Chicago. The weather may be cold, but #epigraphy will warm our hearts. #NACGLE #Classics
Had an intense but wonderful time at both #scsaia and #NACGLE! Met old friends, made new friends, met people I've admired for a long time, spread the word on @LatinNowERC. Particularly happy to see a dozen people I've trained in #EpiDoc, yay! #DigiClass #epigraphy
Final paper at #NACGLE, James Wolfe on lang contact & liturgical formulae in Greek & Syriac; spelling variations coincidental with liturgy; vowel length - accent?; itacism in Syrian only in loan words; West Syriac vowel shift affecting Greek #nacgle #epigraphy
Now Jacqueline DiBiase-Sammons on charcoal graffiti; mislabeling in CIL, diff to identify in publications; pictorial not in CIL; larger in size, obtrusive in domestic space; medium changes the distribution; change in palaeography?; public writing habit #nacgle #epigraphy
Distribution reflects movement through the camous, also visibility, easy of writing, time of day (business hours); new lines within a single flute more often, rarely across flutes; diff directions of writing; common preferences for writing in the campus #nacgle #epigraphy
Graffiti session kicking off with Rebecca Benefiel and Holly Sypniewski on writing on columns and adapting to the space; clustering on some columns, close to the stairs; convex flutes on columns allow writing, the side flutes have more writing #NACGLE #epigraphy
Last day of #NACGLE. Listening to Jane Sancinito on memory & preserving legacy of traders in funerary inscriptions; focus on place of work, also as code: prestige; writing themselves in the city's history; identity & commemoration #epigraphy

@R_Kallunki now on whether child priests had actual offices or were honorific titles only; diff social status, boys & girls; 1-2 cent.; temporary offices? Recurring custom but not common; some priesthoods continue to adulthood; dynastic #nacgle #epgraphy
@KristinJHarper on subversive young women: a father wanting to break his daughter's marriage; a teenager rejecting suitors and consecration herself to God; a woman picking her he's and and pursuing him; Roman and Christian practices blended #nacgle #epigraphy
