Viewing Terms

This web site and underlying database support members of the Sylloge Nummorum Parthicorum team. In addition, it provides translations of numismatic and database terms. The primary web site supporting the translation project is at parthia.org.

The Home, Translations of Numismatic Terms, Show Translations and Help are the only pages available to the general public. Additional pages, menus and controls are available to authorized visitors who are permitted to edit and add terms.

After a period of inactivity, the application will automatically disconnect from the server. If you experience any difficulties, refresh the browser page.

When a language other than English is selected, an additional Translated? dropdown filter becomes available; choose Yes and it displays only those terms that have been translated into the selected language from English. Choose No and it will display only untranslated terms in a blue font.

Find a term
Use the search engine to locate any term. Search criteria are not case sensitive and are looked for in all the languages. After the term has been found, the search/filter region of the page may be collapsed. Note the Collapse icon icon on the header bar:

Search/filter region header

Clicking on the icon will collapse the search/filter region, saving space thus permitting more of the table to be seen. Once clicked, the icon changes (toggles) to become a Expand icon icon which will expand the search/filter region to full view.

Show details
The default sort order of the table is based on the English column. You may re-sort the table by clicking on any language column heading. A term displayed in blue font has not been translated.

    Show Record For more information about a term, including its context or explanation, click on the magnifying glass icon in the left margin of the row in which it appears.
