Welcome to PBW
This is the second edition (2006.2) of the database produced by the Prosopography of the Byzantine World project in December
2006:
Prosopographical Reading of Byzantine Sources, 1025-1102
This edition completes the inclusion of published archival material from the monasteries of Mt Athos, and that relating to
Nea Mone (Chios). It adds basic treatment of Byzantine Italy till the capture of Bari (1071). There has been considerable
tidying throughout, but especially at the beginning and end, a process which will continue in the next edition (2007.1). The
main emphasis of that edition will be on seals.
We thank the handful of people who have sent comments, corrections and improvements of different kinds, and hope that their
number will increase.
