"PBE is a British Academy research project formally associated with the Prosopographie der mittelbyzantinischen Zeit by an inter-academy agreement, dated 22 November 1993"--Title screen.
The Prosopography of the Byzantine Empire Project's goal is to record, eventually in a computerised relational database, all surviving information about every individual mentioned in Byzantine textual sources, together with as many as possible of the individuals recorded in seal sources, during the period from 641 to 1261, and every individual mentioned in non-Byzantine sources during the same period who is 'relevant' (on a generous interpretation) to Byzantine affairs. The project covers the period from 641 (the terminal date of Volume III of the publication Prosopography of the later Roman Empire) to 1261 (the commencement date of the publication Prosopographisches Lexikon der Palaiologenzeit).
The PBE covers three periods: I (641-867); II (867-1025); III (1025-1261).
The PBE project is housed in the School of Humanities at King's College, London, and is based in the Centre for Computing in the Humanities (CCH).
