Education / Reference Tool:
- Accurate coordinates for thousands of Greek historical sites
- Each site indexed to the ancient literary sources that mention it.

The October 2020 update to ToposText tweaks the map interface slightly. It enriches modern place descriptions with Wikidata IDs and data from Archaeology in Greece and other scholarly sources. We have more modern translations for several works, plus 36 fresh ancient texts, including some hard-to-find works like Palaephatus’ On Unbelievable Things, and Dionysius Calliphontis’ description of Greece, newly translated. A few new sites, and lots of site information corrected.

An updated database (August 2, 2019), with 350 new sites and monuments, for a total of 7538. We have added dozens of new texts, including Ioannis Malalas, the Annals of Niketas Choniates and Vienna Anonymous description of Athens, and subdivided other texts to make paragraphs smaller and easier to navigate. And we’ve enriched the modern descriptions of many obscurer sites with extracts from the Inventory of Ancient and Classical Poleis by Hansen et al.. Also, embedded links to the EFA/BSA Chronique des Fouilles, and extracts from Judith Binder’s Sourcebook for the Sites and Monuments of Athens. More improved coordinates and ground-truthed descriptions.

ToposText is now up to 507 texts, including important additions such as Suetonius, Josephus’s Jewish Antiquities, more of Appian, Ammianus Marcellinus, Alciphron, Cornelius Nepos, Apuleius’s Golden Ass. This involved adding hundreds of new ancient places (5193 total) for better coverage of the Near East and Black Sea. Also we now have on-device the ancient Greek of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey.
But the most important new feature is links from ToposText to the Ancient Greek or Latin original for most paragraphs of most texts, generally using the Perseus Project web site of Tufts University. Most of Classical antiquity is now at your fingertips.

jillitunes,
Yeah wow COOL!!!
Thank you!!!! Super app brings you right to primary sources at all locations in Greece. Dictean cave? Euripides text at your fingertips! So cool!!!
DiggerOfHistory,
Highly recommend for history research. Though more refined searches needed
This app is amazing for almost any Greek site in history. However I have some suggestions that will improve the user’s experience with this.
1. Search by period or era.
It would be nice to search by the different periods and Archeological eras.
2. Mult-select site type. In the the drop down menu there is an option to select an site type. It would be nice to select more then one.
Thank you.

Xindara,
My favorite app (really)
I don't usually write reviews but ToposText is simply amazing. It has an incredible database of texts from throughout the Mediterranean and all of them are linked to ancient sites. I work with great archaeology and use this app to find the most remote tiny sites, which are correctly GIS referenced and linked to all available literature. I use it on my phone all the time as a reference and as an "ancient GPS". It probably would be even more amazing on a tablet - this app makes me want to get an iPad.
Odysseus325,
Fantastic app
I love having a map available when reading from the ancient sources.
