The atlas is the product of a 12-year project involving nearly 200 scholars and cartographers that was financed by over $4.5 million in federal and private donations. The Map-by-Map Directory is also available separately in a two-volume, 1,400-page hardbound edition. The detailed listing includes periods of cultural activity, modern names and locations, and bibliographic citations for each feature. The atlas includes a CD-ROM version of the Map-by-Map Directory, which contains an introduction, bibliography and detailed listing of every feature appearing on every map. Temporally, it covers the period from 1,000 BC/BCE to AD/CE 650. The double-folio-sized atlas contains 102 color topographic maps (many double spreads) and covers a vast arc of territory, from the British Isles and the Azores eastward across Europe and North Africa, up the Nile valley and through the Near East to Afghanistan and western China. Talbert (ed.), (Princeton University Press, 2000, ISBN: 9-X), is a comprehensive atlas spanning the entire period and spatial spread of Greek and Roman civilization.

Like the Antiquity À-la-carte application, Benthos will be built upon open source software and produce data that will be freely accessible, usable, and modifiable for non-commercial use under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC 3.0) license. The project will provide interactive maps of Mediterranean shipping, bathymetric data, and views of ancient coastlines. Benthos: Digital Atlas of Ancient Watersīenthos is a new initiative to catalog and map ancient shipwrecks and more. Burges plans to continue developing the terrain model. Excavation data, geological research, and modern LiDAR data combine to map this crucial period of Rome’s urbanization. The project’s goal was to create a digital elevation model of the Roman Forum area, including parts of the Capitoline, Palatine, and Velia hills in the era of the Forum’s first pavement (ca. The Birth of the Forum Romanum: a 3D Reconstruction of the Terrain of the Early CityĬartographic research assistant Steve Burges (UNC 2013) completed this project during his fourth undergraduate year at UNC and it was awarded highest honors by the Department of Classics. The leaflet that accompanied the map appears here. The map aims to depict Roman Asia Minor during the administration of the emperor Trajan. Horne, the full-color map debuted as a draft version at the 2012 meetings of the Archaeological Institute of America in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on 6 January 2012. A Map of Asia Minor Around 100 C.E.ĪWMC is compiling a single sheet scholar’s map of Asia Minor at a scale of 1:750,000 around 100 C.E.
Furthermore all the data created for the map is freely downloadable for any non-commercial use under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC 3.0) license. The application allows for an extensive range of custom criteria that can tailor the map to meet almost any needs from the archaic to the late Roman periods. The project seeks to make an interactive, manipulable map of the ancient Mediterranean world intended primarily for students and their instructors. The Antiquity À-la-carte application is an interactive digital map of the ancient world built using open source software and data derived from The Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World and Pleiades. The center supports a variety of ongoing projects including: Current Projects:
