TimeMaps: atlas of world history
The TimeMaps: Atlas of World History is being developed by a small team of historians, cartographers, designers and programmers, with advice from Ben Walsh and Alf Wilkinson. It aims to provide free access to timelines and maps which will enable students and independent learners to obtain a broad overview of world history from 3500BC to the present day, tracing when and where different civilizations, empires and nations appeared, and how they interact and relate to each other. It is possible to focus on particular dates in history, geographical areas or topics (such as Empires). The site is currently under development with material being added. Also under development is a learning centre with course materials for teachers. Associated software packages may be purchased from the site. From Intute.ac.uk
