In The Phrygian Language (Brill, 2020) I gathered all the Phrygian inscriptions know by that time. Fortunately, however, more Phrygian inscriptions have been published or identified after the book was closed. I will continuously update this list with the references of the novelties. Discussions will be left aside. Note that this list does not include further discussions, only the text editions. I also offer at the end of the document the current list of the Phrygian inscriptions. If you notice something is missing, please contact me at obradorcursach@gmail.com
