3 years ago Hello Benedetta, You can include information about the date of the witnesses (and more generally the nodes) in the metadata (there is a «witness date of origin» field).
I'm currently encoding the stemma of a classical text (The History of...). The tradition is for those stemmata to taking into account the chronology in the hierarchisation: the newest mss are at the bottom, the oldest are at the top. Manuscripts in between are organised by layers. Each layer represents a transmission phase. It is impossible to have two mss of different age on the same layer. I would like to know whether I can include this information. I find it very important.
