The PROIEL Treebank
--------------------

The PROIEL Treebank is a treebank of ancient Indo-European languages,
including Latin and Ancient Greek. It uses a refined version of
dependency grammar and is available under a Creative Commons
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International.

The PROIEL Treebank is one of three treebanks that use the same
annotation system, follow the same principles and are available under
the same license. The PROIEL Treebank covers Ancient Greek and Latin,
as well as the translations of the New Testament into Gothic,
Classical Armenian and Old Church Slavonic. The TOROT Treebank covers
Old Church Slavonic, Old Russian and Middle Russian, while the ISWOC
Treebank includes texts in Old English, Old French, Portuguese and
Spanish. The complete collection currently has 928,185 tokens, all of
which has been manually annotated with morphological and syntactic
analyses. Parts of the treebank also have information-structure
annotation and the New Testament texts include text alignment. 

All the PROIEL-family treebanks can be browsed and queried using INESS
Search.

The HistCorp files
-------------------
On the HistCorp page, the Latin texts from the Proiel Treebank
are provided in a plain text format ('txt'), a tokenised format
('tok'), and a tab-separated CoNLL-format with linguistic annotation
('ling'). The following three texts are included:

1) caes-gal   = Caesar, Commentarii belli Gallici (ed. Holmes 1914)
2) cic-off    = Cicero, De officiis (ed. Miller 1913)
3) cic-att    = Cicero, Epistulae ad Atticum (ed. Purser 1901)
4) latin-nt   = Jerome's Vulgate
5) pal-agr    = Palladius, Opus agriculturae (ed. Schmitt 1898)
6) per-aeth   = Peregrinatio Aetheriae (ed. Heraeus 1908)

The plain text files were created from the original Proiel CoNLL
files, by extracting the words and sentences from the CoNLL structure,
adding one sentence on each line in the resulting plain text file, and
also adding the metadata from the README file in a TEI-compatible
format at the top of each file. In addition, the number of tokens for
each file has been calculated based on the tokenised version of the
file.

Similarly, the tokenised files were created from the original Proiel
CoNLL files, by extracting the words, one on each line, with sentence
boundaries marked by an empty line.

The linguistically annotated files are the same as the original Proiel
CoNLL files, except that metadata has been added at the top of each
file.


Size: 6 texts, with a total of 219,035 tokens.
