Global Middle Ages: Where Supercomputing Meets Medieval Studies

by J J Cohen

Three interconnected websites that every medievalist should know about are:

• Gmap (the Global Middle Ages project)
• Mappamundi
• SCGMA

All three can also be accessed through this elegantly constructed portal. Directed by Geraldine Heng and Susan Noakes, the project aims to create new collaborative spaces within which to map out new ways of understanding a geographically expansive and millennium-long Middle Ages.

The resources here are quite deep. Follow the links and see for yourself: these are sites to watch.
