DESCRIPTION:The Arabian Peninsula lies at the heart of the Middle East. To
 day\, it is of enormous strategic and commercial importance and this was a
 lso the case in antiquity. Yet\, most of what we know about its ancient hi
 story\, languages and cultures comes from contemporaries looking at it fro
 m outside\, such as the Assyrians\, Greeks\, and Romans\, or from much lat
 er reports on what was considered the “Age of Ignorance”.\n\nThis talk
  gives an overview of inscriptions found in North Arabia\, and outlines th
 e process of creating the Online Corpus of Inscriptions of Ancient North A
 rabia (OCIANA) database. It will be of interest to anyone wanting to under
 stand how complex databases are designed. In particular\, it focusses on u
 sing FileMaker Pro for research databases.\nSpeakers:\nDaniel Burt (Orient
 al Institute\, University of Oxford)
