Hosted at the University of Virginia, MED is owned by Raf Alvarado, Coordinator of Humanities and Social Sciences Computing at Princeton:
The Mayan Epigraphic Database Project
Extract from introduction:
"The Mayan Epigraphic Database Project (MED) is an experiment in networked scholarship with the purpose of enhancing Classic Mayan epigraphic research. At present, MED consists of a relational database of glyphs ("gnumbers"), images, phonetic values ("pvalues"), and semantic values ("svalues") according to the consensus among various American Mayanists (MacLeod and Reents-Budet 1994). Also present is the beginning of an archive of digitally transcribed Mayan texts."
