Use this epigraphic utility to apply a stated parsing, transcription, measurement, dating, classification, or documentation rule consistently while preparing inscriptions for scholarly review.

Text

Inscription text.

Detect the Pater Patriae honorific (spelled out or as P PATRIAE with optional interpuncts) in an inscription and report occurrence count plus its position among whitespace-separated tokens. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.^[1]

Present

True when the title occurs at least once.

Occurrences

Number of occurrences.

Token index

Zero-based whitespace-token index of the first occurrence (0 when absent).

First token

True when the title opens the text.

Last token

True when nothing follows the title except whitespace.

• Corpus references, formula detectors, measurements, and classifiers depend on the edition, language, script, abbreviation practice, text normalization, and preservation state. Automated output should remain linked to the diplomatic transcription and image evidence.
• Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Retain the photograph, squeeze or scan, diplomatic transcription, provenance, dimensions, uncertainty marks, and corpus identifiers with the result. Confirm ambiguous cases against the relevant corpus, Leiden conventions, parallel inscriptions, and specialist judgment.

• Cognomen Count Onomastic Element Tally Calculator

  Tallies the whitespace-separated onomastic elements of a Roman name and reports how many beyond praenomen and nomen are likely cognomina.

• Concordance Cross-Reference Duplicate Merge Detector

  Detect cross-concordance duplicates by matching references between two lists case-insensitively after trimming whitespace and report merge candidates in first-listed order.

• Dis Manibus Formula Presence Frequency Tag Generator

  Tag an inscription with a presence label for the Dis Manibus formula family (D M, DM, D M S, DIS MANIB- in U/V spellings), reporting occurrence frequency, a 'formula:dis-manibus'/'formula:none' tag, and the first matched form as normalized uppercase.
