The publication entity defines the features of any publication of a cuneiform artifact, which may act as a type of primary source publication. Secondary source references to cuneiform tablets, such as sign readings, translations, etc. will be dealt with in the Bibliography Reference Markdown. As included in digital catalogues in cuneiform studies, the publications feature consists of a standardized citation which typically includes: author, title, date, and other publication information for an artifact with a cuneiform inscription. For an example of these standardized citations found in bibliography publication entities as employed in digital catalogues in cuneiform studies, see the CDLI and the Keilschrift Bibliographie.
As a publication may contain multiple entity types, we utilize the fields from Dublin Core and MARC standards. A publication should always include an author of the work, along with a title and year in which the work was published.
