Résumé
The project "Ancient Lucania: archaeology and cultural heritage" aims at investigating the process of Lucanian ethnogenesis using, beside texts, an archaeological approach. In order to achieve this project, we are compiling both a 'Gazetteer of archaeological sites of ancient Lucania' and an 'Inventory of Lucanian antiquities'. To manage and organize our data, we needed to develop a relational database providing a simple and efficient end-user experience, as well as an online collaborative work platform meeting the needs of several contemporary accesses. These requirements had to be associated with a low-cost development process demanding no specific programming skills and sustainable ensuing maintenance costs. Accordingly, we opted for a proprietary database management system. FileMaker products swiftly appeared as both practical and sustainable solutions. This paper presents the technical choices made to conceive a relational database, to implement its structure in FileMaker and to add mapping tools in the resulting Ancient Lucania Database.
