Annotation: The project "Catalog of Old Turkic (Runic) Inscriptions" aims to compile a comprehensive inventory of approximately 700 known Old Turkic inscriptions across Eurasia. Initiated by the Turkic Academy, this endeavor brings together renowned runologists, Turkologists, archaeologists and historians. The project involves creating an electronic database containing detailed information for each inscription, including its name, discovery date, location, current repository, number of lines, current images and the original Turkic text. The culmination of this work will be the publication of a monograph-catalog titled "Catalog of Old Turkic (Runic) Inscriptions," serving as a valuable reference for researchers and scholars in the field of Turkic studies.
