Case Study
Canadian Centre for Epigraphic Documents
Created a powerful digital archive to preserve and explore centuries of historical inscriptions.
Overview
The Canadian Centre for Epigraphic Documents (CCED) is dedicated to preserving and documenting Syriac inscriptions from the first to twenty-first century. Their work involves organizing a large volume of historical data across regions, collections, and time periods — making accessibility and structure critical.
They needed more than a traditional website. They needed a robust digital platform to manage inscriptions, publish research, and allow scholars to explore complex datasets with ease.
We designed and developed a modern, scalable website powered by our custom EB Media CMS, giving their team full control to manage inscriptions, collections, journal content, and more — all within a clean, intuitive system built specifically for their needs.
