At present, it gives open access to nearly 8,500 inscriptions and 600 more anepigraphic South Arabian objects. All the edited texts are encoded in TEI-Epidoc and provided with relevant metadata, including information on the text-bearing support, chronological and geographic context and, when possible, translations. The public archive allows browsing the content through refinable indexes and search tools, both on metadata and epigraphic texts.
