Citation: Daniel A. Werning & Wiki Contributers. 31 Jul 2016. TEI:Body http://wikis.hu-berlin.de/annotated_text_databases/index.php?title=TEI:Body&oldid=91, in: Annotated Text Databases. A collaborative Wiki for the coordination of TEI encoding and metadata thesauri for ancient manuscripts (Open access Wiki) http://wikis.hu-berlin.de/annotated_text_databases/, ed. by Daniel A. Werning, Berlin: Humboldt University Berlin.
Personal names and individual persons
Example for individual person in line with EpiDoc 8.21 Guidelines:[1]
<persName type="royal" ref="http://www.trismegistos.org/person/12909" key="Ptolemaios_III_Euergetes_I"> <name nymref="http://www.trismegistos.org/name/5317" key="Ptolemaios"> Ptrwmys </name> </persName>
Examples for name (without identification with individual person):
<persName type="non_royal" key="Amenophis"> <name nymref="http://www.trismegistos.org/name/8042" key="Amenophis"> jmn-m-jp.t </name> </persName>
Place names
Example:
<placeName type="settlement" key="Elephantine" ref="http://www.trismegistos.org/place/621">Yb</placeName>
Alternatives for "settlement" are "district", "region", "country".
Dates
For dating by regnal years, use @when-custom and @datingMethod, and seperate ruler and regnal year by ":":[2]
<date when-custom="Ptolemaios_III:11" datingMethod="#regnal_year">ḥsb.t 11</date>
Example for Coptic month:
<date when-custom="Parmuti:9">ⲡⲁⲣⲙⲁⲧ ⲑ</date>
If you can provide a modern calendar year (TLA chronology, like in the database), add notBefore="..." notAfter="..." plus a precision="..." attribute, e.g.
<date when-custom="Ptolemaios_III:11" datingMethod="#regnal_year" notBefore="-0236" notAfter="-0235" precision="high">ḥsb.t 11</date> <date when-custom="Parmuti:9" notBefore="0450" notAfter="0465" precision="medium">ⲡⲁⲣⲙⲁⲧ ⲑ</date>
Instead of a time span one may refer to an individual year using a when="..." attribute:
<date when-custom="Ptolemaios_III:11" datingMethod="#regnal_year" when="-0236" precision="high">ḥsb.t 11</date>
Years BC are negative values; year values must have 4 digits. Months may follow and must have 2 digits:
notBefore="-0236-05" notAfter="-0235-04"
or
when="0455-03"
