Welcome to the website of the British Epigraphy Society!


This site contains information on the Society and its activities. It also serves as a forum for disseminating news of the latest developments in epigraphic studies, in Britain and around the world.

The British Epigraphy Society exists to promote the study of inscriptions, texts and historical documents in Greek, Latin and other languages, and was established at a meeting in London on 16 November 1996 as an independent 'chapter' of the Association Internationale d'Epigraphie Grecque et Latine (A.I.E.G.L.). It is a registered charity (no. 1090249).
