The Organization of the field From the Middle Ages onwards Greek and Latin inscriptions have been published in the accounts of travellers, who were often interested not only in inscriptions and other antiquities, but also in geography and local customs. Many museums and private collections have inscriptions in their collections of antiquities. For other museums see: Guide de l'épigraphiste,p. 128-130. Many inscriptions are now found in the context of archaeological excavations. Many inscriptions are now being published individually, or in small groups, in periodicals, sometimes in the standard classical journals (JHS, JRS, BCH for instance), sometimes in periodicals that specialise in epigraphy. • M.H.
