Morning all - As many of you will know, the Getty Trust funds one of the most well known vocabulary devlopment projects in the world of fine arts and portable antiquities. List members may be interested to explore the following links on their redesigned web site (below). It has been a long standing intention of the FISH INSCRIPTION project to map MIDAS units of information to the appropriate hierarchies in the Art and Architecture Thesaurus and the Thesaurus of Geographic Names. Any members who would like to assist in this project are very welcome to contact me.
