Annotation

The article presents some of the main problems faced by the author and his colleagues at the preliminary stage of the implementation of the project of the event database of Byzantine history. The creation of a structured database containing the main events of the history of Byzantium in the 9^th–10^th centuries required preliminary work on the formation of a list of sources, collection and classification of scientific research literature, which resulted in the creation of special bibliographic databases. At the stage of direct creation of the event database, several fundamental theoretical problems had to be solved: on the relationship between fact and event; about the ways of fixing the event; on the methods and formats for specifying the date and place; on the essence, nature and form of recording events of various types. A need emerged to create a number of related databases: prosopographic, institutional, and geographic. These and other problems, solutions to which were proposed and implemented in the course of work on the Event Database, are set out taking into account the promising research prospects of this methodological approach for historical study.
