Abstract
Between September 30 and October 8, 1975, the Italian Archaeological Expedition to Syria (MAIS) unearthed the oldest known cuneiform archive found in situ. In order to keep track of the whereabouts of all 15,000 inscribed objects within the Great Archive L.2769, archaeologists created a findspot registration system. Between 1975 and 1978, the team registered each item’s location using this system, and inventoried all the epigraphic material. This paper offers an overview of the digitization process of the spatial data referring to epigraphic findings from L.2769 collected thus far as well as a comprehensive assessment of the findspot registration system.
