Attributes include alternative names, gender, alignment with wikidata and LIMC, disambiguation categories (possibly same as, rationalised form of, sometimes conflated with etc), genealogical relationships, relationships to places (birthplace, location of death, cities founded etc), other characters interacted with (killing, enslavement, etc), textual passages mentioned in, artifacts depicted on. license: CC-BY 4.0 Sample dataset showing disambiguation attributions for some entitiesagents and collectives in Apollodoros.csv

Just to note, some more datasets may be found in this list: https://wiki.digitalclassicist.org/Greco-Roman_Prosopographies (although some are defunct/were never digital, and the list is not comprehensive or up to date).

There may be more at https://wiki.digitalclassicist.org/Category:Prosopography too. I'd like to think we could make new entries in the DC wiki from some of the discoveries in this avtivity…
