Placelore

A history atlas. Places, what happened at them, and where that is written down — every claim carries a source you can follow to the record it came from.

About five thousand places across seven countries so far, with twenty thousand citations behind them. It is still being written, and parts of it are better than others.

Sign-in is by email — we send a link, and there is no password to remember. New accounts are limited at the moment: this runs on one small server and is looked after by one person, so it is kept small for practical reasons rather than exclusive ones. If someone shared this with you, ask them for an invitation.
