The Corpus of Minoan and Mycenaean Seals (CMS) has been published exclusively in a printed version since being established in 1958. The project’s aim is the scholarly publication of every preserved seal and clay cast from the Aegean Bronze Age. Most of the Corpus should be digitized, updated and available on the internet for free before the project ends in 2011. The project was conducted in cooperation with the Academy of Sciences and Literature in Mainz and the Academic Workplace Corpus of Minonan and Mycenaean Seals" in Marburg under the scientific supervision of the Commission for Archaeology of the Mainz Academy. This supplement to Volume 4 contains a full bibliography of the glyptic arts and, as such, is extremely valuable for researchers."
