In this lecture, Dr. Martín González will present the results of the research project Dodona Travels to Ithaca, currently being carried out at the University of Valladolid with NextGenerationEU funding. The project examines the application of the AI model Ithaca to the revised edition of the oracular tablets from the sanctuary of Dodona.

The talk will discuss the methodological challenges of applying AI tools to Greek epigraphy, highlighting both the possibilities and the limitations that emerge from testing Ithaca on this corpus.
