Formulae Catalogue: Henry · Rhodes · ML · RO · OR · R&L#

Comprehensive cross-source catalogue of formula examples cited in the five canonical Greek-decree reference works held in the dossier's general knowledge folder, plus the methodologically essential companion Rhodes & Lewis 1997. Each entry binds an inscription number to one or more formula UIDs from the dossier's formulae.json, with the source citation (scholar + page-band) and — where extractable — a verbatim Greek snippet.

Methodology + coverage statement#

Sources mined. Five canonical reference works for Greek decree formulae:

#WorkFormatText-layer?Mining modePages

+Rhodes (with Lewis), The Decrees of the Greek States (Oxford 1997)scanned PDF + text layer✅ (same caveat)Full pdftotext + cross-ref. Included because Rhodes & Lewis 1997 generalises the Athenian formula bundle to all Greek poleis and is therefore the most diverse source for non-Athenian formulae654

What is captured. For each citation in the four text-layer works (Henry, Rhodes 1985, RO 2003, Rhodes & Lewis 1997), a context window of ±240 chars is scanned for keywords identifying which formula UID(s) the citation instantiates. Verbatim Greek where the underlying excerpts file (excerpts_greek_decrees_A.md, _B.md) preserves it; otherwise an explicit [verbatim Greek pending OCR] flag.

Yield. 320 citation × formula hits across 15 formula UIDs and 4 text-layer works, plus 311 verbatim Greek phrases from the manual excerpts. Henry contributes 101 hits, Rhodes 1985 190, RO 2003 16, R&L 1997 13.

What is deferred. Verbatim Greek attribution from ML 1969 and OR 2017 awaits a full grc+eng OCR pass. The test pass earlier in this session confirmed Tesseract 4.1 with the grc.traineddata checkpoint produces high-quality polytonic Greek output on ML at 150–200 dpi; the only blocker was wall-clock time (~1.5 h for the two volumes combined). The cross-reference matrix in §6 below identifies which ML and OR numbers Henry / Rhodes / RO / R&L cite for which formulae, so when OCR is run the catalogue can be back-populated by inscription number rather than by exhaustive sweep.

Meiggs & Lewis 1969 — citations gathered from cross-references (verbatim Greek pending OCR)#

Below: every ML number cited by Henry 1977 / Rhodes 1985 / RO 2003 / R&L 1997 in a formula-relevant context. Where the other works pin a formula slot to the ML citation, that UID is recorded. Direct verbatim attribution from ML 1969 itself awaits OCR.

The 14 ML numbers above cluster heavily in the late fifth century (ML 80–94 = 423–404 BCE). This is unsurprising: Henry 1977's argument-heavy second chapter ("The First Half of the Fourth Century") needs frequent cross-reference to the immediately-preceding fifth-century stage, and ML 80–94 are the densest formulaic specimens in M&L's 5th-c. corpus. The five formula UIDs covered through this cross-reference channel — F.EDOXEN_BD, F.EGRAMMATEUEN, F.EIPEN, F.EPESTATEI, F.PROXENIAN_EINAI, F.EPI_PRYTANEIAS, F.AMENDMENT_KATHAPER — are precisely the slots whose late-fifth-century forms shape Henry's "perfect-design" narrative. When ML 1969 OCR is run, each of these 14 ML numbers can be matched to its printed Greek and the catalogue back-populated with verbatim attribution at the slot level.

Osborne & Rhodes 2017 GHI 478–404 BC — coverage note#

OR 2017 is a revised, expanded successor to ML 1969, covering the same period 478–404 BCE plus ~80 additional inscriptions discovered or republished since. Because OR 2017 only came out in 2017, none of the four text-layer works mined here (Henry 1977, Rhodes 1985, RO 2003, R&L 1997) cite OR numbers — they all use ML or IG numbers for the same texts. OR coverage in this catalogue is therefore derived by inscription identity, not by abbreviation: every ML number listed in the table above is a candidate OR re-publication, and the ML→OR mapping (when consulted from OR 2017's own concordance) will identify which ML numbers are now OR numbers and which are newly-added entries.

The newly-added OR entries (those without an ML predecessor) constitute the highest-value OCR target in OR 2017 — they introduce 5th-century formula specimens not previously catalogued. Targeted OCR of OR's inscription pages + reading of its concordance will surface these without requiring an exhaustive sweep.

---

Rhodes & Osborne 2003 GHI 404–323 BC — the volume's own inscription corpus#

RO 2003 is itself a corpus of 100 inscriptions for the period 404–323 BCE. Each RO number = one inscription, with full Greek text + facing translation + commentary. The full corpus is accessible via the volume's text layer.

RO numbers cross-referenced within the commentary as formal analogues to other RO entries are scant in the present mining pass (the citation-context window favoured prefix matches like IG II² and Tod which RO 2003 uses for inter-entry comparison). A follow-up pass that walks RO 2003's table of contents directly — extracting each of RO 1 through RO 100's slot-by-slot prescript — would surface the 100 canonical 4th-century specimens. The Tod table below already captures most of the cross-references RO 2003 itself makes, because Tod 1948 is RO 2003's direct predecessor and each Tod number is one-to-one with a RO number for shared inscriptions.

---

A note on Tod numbers#

M. N. Tod, A Selection of Greek Historical Inscriptions, vol. II: From 403 to 323 B.C. (Oxford 1948) is the predecessor that RO 2003 replaces. Most Tod numbers map to RO numbers (the same inscription gets a new RO number when RO 2003 includes it). Henry 1977 and Rhodes 1985 cite Tod numbers exclusively (because Tod was canonical at their writing dates); RO 2003 and R&L 1997 use RO numbers but also retain Tod cross-references.

The catalogue treats Tod and RO as complementary rather than mutually exclusive: a citation to "Tod 108" is a citation to the same text RO 2003 would re-publish as RO X (where the mapping is published in RO's concordance, p. 487 in the 2007 paperback). The cross-reference enables Henry 1977's 37 Tod citations to be back-mapped onto the RO 2003 corpus for verbatim Greek attribution.

Verbatim Greek index (from existing dossier_workspace excerpts)#

The manual excerpts in excerpts_greek_decrees_A.md and _B.md preserve verbatim Greek for select passages where Henry 1977, Rhodes 1985, Rhodes & Lewis 1997, and Lambert 2012 quote the inscriptions directly. 311 such verbatim Greek phrases total — these are the canonical printed forms of the formulae the catalogue above cites in cross-reference. To browse them by passage, open the two excerpts files.

ML 1969 — verbatim Greek (back-populated via OCR pass M11.1)#

The following Greek extracts come from the OCR pass of Meiggs & Lewis 1969 (tesseract grc+eng at 150 dpi) for the 14 ML numbers cited in §6 above. The full ~327-page OCR is partial as of this writing (95+ inscription-entry pages OCR'd out of 327; remaining inscription pages are queued for completion in a follow-up pass). The page-by-page output sits in /sessions/.../outputs/_ocr/ml1969/p-NNN.txt; the back-population script is at dossier_workspace/ml1969_ocr_extract.json and can be re-run when additional ML numbers are added to the catalogue.

M13.4 — Cross-tag of catalogued inscriptions with preservation types#

Below: every catalogued inscription that maps to a corpus record carries its preservation type, computed by pipeline/25_preservation_metrics.py. The mapping is partial because most catalogue citations use bibliographic abbreviations (IG II² N, ML N, Tod N) that do not resolve to the dossier corpus' UID scheme (edcs:, iphi:, edh:HD, bilingual:) without a separate concordance. The six case studies are listed explicitly; the next ~20 corpus records carry the highest preservation-type ranks among records that are both in the corpus and cited at least once in the catalogue.

Top 20 catalogue-cited records by historical-significance score#

The corpus-record ↔ catalogue-citation join is currently empty: the catalogue references inscriptions by their canonical bibliographic abbreviations (IG II² N, ML N, Tod N) while the corpus indexes by source UID (edcs:*, iphi:*, edh:*, bilingual:*). A separate concordance step (parse the catalogue\'s bibliographic refs, look up the corresponding corpus UID via the IPHI/EDH metadata fields) would unlock this join — listed as a follow-up enrichment.

Following the same back-populate pattern as the ML 1969 section above, the following Greek extracts come from the targeted OCR pass over Osborne & Rhodes, Greek Historical Inscriptions, 478–404 BC (Oxford 2017). Three high-yield OR entries are covered in this pass — the rest of the catalogued ML/OR equivalents (ML 14, 44, 46, 61, 65, 73, 85, 90, 91, 92, 94) are queued for a follow-up OCR batch (pages mostly already rendered).
