The core database of the Petrifying Wealth project is freely accessible via a search form (http://www.petrifyingwealth.cchs.csic.es/spatial/consulta_bd.html). As regards the epigraphy, its location can be viewed publicly via the project’s map viewer (http://www.petrifyingwealth.cchs.csic.es/spatial/petri_spatial.html).
