Fragment Editions — Ancient Ecology

27 critical editions of geographical & ecological fragments — Hecataeus of Miletus, Eratosthenes, Agatharchides of Cnidus, and Hellanicus of Lesbos. Each is a Brill’s New Jacoby / Jacoby (FGrH)-based text carrying a codepoint-level open-corpus apparatus — the recorded differences between the BNJ base and the corresponding open digital witness (Athenaeus, Strabo, Diodorus, Cleomedes, Agathemerus, ps.-Demetrius, the Homer scholia, Gellius, &c.). Collation was source-grounded against the on-disk Perseus corpora and adversarially reviewed (2026-06-26). “In-span” marks an edition whose witness covers the checked core but not the full quotation.
