Digital Atlas of the Roman Empire
Inspired by the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World (see above), this digital map adds 9111 places (and buildings) with a different provenance than the Barrington Atlas. The Barrington Atlas’s limitations in terms of the physical size of the printed atlas do not apply the same way to a digital map.
