Although this paper appears belated (it has been presented in the Istanbul Black Sea Conference in 2009), and in the meanwhile the site of the Encyclopedia of Black Sea is fully functional, [http://blacksea.ehw.gr/forms/fmain.aspx?lang=en-US] it has the merit to give a methodological support and an explanation of the choices made in this project, for which A. Sideris was the scientific editor of the Antiquity section.

Abstract We describe a system which enhances the experience of museum visits by providing users with language-technology-based information retrieval capabilities. The system consists of a cross-lingual search engine, augmented by state of the art semantic expansion technology, specifically designed for the domain of the museum (history and archaeology of Israel). We discuss the technology incorporated in the system, its adaptation to the specific domain and its contribution to cultural heritage appreciation.
CEUR Workshop Proceedings
Proceedings of the First International Workshop Semantic Web for Scientific Heritage (SW4SH 2015) co-located with the 12th Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2015)2015 •
The first International Workshop on Semantic Web for Scientific Heritage was held in conjunction with the 12th ESWC 2015 Conference on June 1, in Portoroz, Slovenia and provided a leading international and interdisciplinary forum for disseminating the latest research in the field of Semantic Web for the preservation and exploitation of our scientific heritage, the study of the history of ideas and their transmission. Classicists and historians are interested in developing textual databases, in order to gather and explore large amounts of primary source materials. For a long time, they mainly focused on text digitization and markup. They only recently decided to try to explore the possibility of transferring some analytical processes they previously thought incompatible with automation to knowledge engineering systems, thus taking advantage of the growing set of tools and techniques based on the languages and standards of the semantic Web, such as linked data, ontologies, and automated reasoning. The iconographic data, which are also relevant in history of science and arise similar problematic could be addressed as well and offer suggestive insights for a global methodology for diverse media. On the other hand, Semantic Web researchers are willing to take up more ambitious challenges than those arising in the native context of the Web in terms of anthropological complexity, addressing meta-semantic problems of flexible, pluralist or evolutionary ontologies, sources heterogeneity, hermeneutic and rhetoric dimensions. Thus the opportunity for a fruitful encounter of knowledge engineers with computer-savvy historians and classicists has come. This encounter may be inscribed within the more general context of digital humanities, a research area at the intersection of computing and the humanities disciplines which is gaining an ever-increasing momentum and where the Linked Open Data is playing an increasingly prominent role.
In this paper, I discuss some of the more salient intellectual and technological dimensions of work over the past year, focused on developing an open source knowledge creation, management and publication system. In key respects, our work seeks to anticipate developments in national collaborative e-research infrastructure over the next five or so years.
This chapter turns to the application of semantic technologies to areas where text is not dominant, but rather audiovisual content in the form of images, 3D objects, audio, and video/television. Non-textual digital content raises new challenges for semantic technology in terms of capturing the meaning of that content and expressing it in the form of semantic annotation. Where such annotations are available in combination with expressive ontologies describing the target domain, such as television and cultural heritage, new and exciting possibilities arise for multimedia applications.
