### Fragmentarium & Signs

- It is now possible to add dates to Fragmentarium editions: Both the date of a tablet (i.e., the date from the date formula, so only one per tablet) and the dates mentioned in the text (multiple per tablet) can be entered. The date is displayed in the Fragmentarium edition, in the sign display and also in the search.
- The majority of dates in J. Everling’s collection (13480 tablets) have been imported, so most published NB-LB tablets are now linked to a date. The rest from the Babylon Collection catalogue are being processed to be imported as proper dates. Please let us know if you want to import any list of dated tablets.
- A list is being created of cuneiform documents from the Hellenistic and Parthian periods (Daniel López). Also, the signs in documents from these periods are being systematically tagged (Ekaterine Gogokhia). If you find any tablet from these periods that is not easily found, please let us know.

### Bibliography & Tools

- The AfO Register Textstellen (over 40,000 references) has been imported.
- It is possible to search for AfO Register references ([https://www.ebl.lmu.de/bibliography/afo-register](https://www.ebl.lmu.de/bibliography/afo-register)); the AfO Register references are now shown under the individual records when matches are found (e.g. [IM.74403](https://www.ebl.lmu.de/fragmentarium/IM.74403)).
- The matching depends on the field `traditionalReferences`, invisible to the user. That field attempts to account for all possible variations in traditional references to cuneiform tablets, e.g., “SpTU 1, 2” is also recorded as “ADFU 9, 2”, “SBTU 1, 2”, etc. Still, only a small number of AfO Register references (approximately 17.5%) can be linked. eBL users are kindly requested to alert us if they find references that should be matched with Fragmentarium records.
- The date converter that underlies the eBL Dates has now been deployed as an independent tool: [https://www.ebl.lmu.de/tools/date-converter](https://www.ebl.lmu.de/tools/date-converter)
