Awol Is 10!

6th Jan 2019 is the 10th anniversary of the launch of The Ancient World Online. In that fourth dimension nosotros bring had 8,355,892 page views, in addition to posted 6557 entries. 8,063 readers bring chosen to have the daily e-mail update, amongst 1,783 followers on Facebook in addition to 1937 followers on Twitter.

 AWOL  is the successor to Abzu at ETANA, a multi-institutional collaborative projection initiated inwards August 2000, every bit an electronic publishing projection designed to heighten the report of the history in addition to civilization of the ancient Near East. Funded initially yesteryear a planning grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, thus yesteryear a larger digitization grant from the same foundation, the ETANA spider web portal was launched inwards 2001. That version is a successor to Abzu hosted at the website of the Oriental Institute Chicago  (the link is to the earliest version accessible at the Internet Archive), in addition to was launched inwards October 1994, almost twenty-five years ago. We believe it is the longest sustained examine to document in addition to disseminate the evolution of online opened upwards access scholarship inwards whatever field.

 The Ancient World Online is merely non-commercial, uses merely light-weight gratuitous in addition to opened upwards tools for its administration in addition to distribution. Outside of the salaries I bring received at the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago, The American School of Classical Studies at Athens, The Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at NYU, in addition to the Libraries at Penn State University, AWOL in addition to Abzu bring required no fiscal support. AWOL is committed to opened upwards access in addition to to providing access gratuitous of accuse to scholarship on Antiquity to anyone who is interested.

 Abzu was the winner of the Archaeological Institute of America's Outstanding Work inwards Digital Archaeology Award inwards 2015, in addition to the Digital Humanities Awards  2015  Best DH Blog Post or Series of Posts Award.


 Thanks to y'all all for your continuing support, in addition to delight offering whatever feedback y'all may amongst to give. 

 I wonder what this volition loo similar inwards about other 10 years allow along twenty-five.
