Thanks to researchers specialised in Middle Dutch, Icelandic, Middle English, & French (Middle French, Old French, Anglo-Norman, Franco-Italian, Franco-Occitan, Franco-Provençal, Occitan), the LostMa corpus has grown to nearly 2.5k witnesses of Medieval tales (texts).

A screenshot of a horizontal bar graph showing the counts of text records and witness records in the LostMa database for each language group.
To build a multilingual corpus, experts in various traditions are contributing metadata about Medieval texts & witnesses.
For several weeks, the Middle Dutch 🇳🇱 🏆 group has been leading in both texts & witnesses. But recently our French 🇫🇷 team passe des vitesses 💪
