| Summary: | This paper describes a dataset containing more than 25 Ancient Greek and Latin words (nouns, verbs, adjectives) connected to the semantic field SEA (‘sea’, ‘water’, ‘wave’, ‘shore’, ‘sail’, ‘maritime’). Tokens have been morphologically and semantically annotated, distinguishing among literal, metaphorical, and metonymic senses according to cognitive linguistics. Data have been stored in Figshare and are publicly available. This dataset can serve as a model for cross-linguistic semantic analyses in this or in other semantic fields, not only in the languages considered here. It can also be used to retrieve information in other research areas, such as literature, geography, anthropology, and psychology.
