About
The maps include places which were predominantly settled by Greeks, or were centers of Greek influence, or Hellenized, or administered by Greeks, from the Stone Age to the Roman Era (pre-3000 BCE to about 200 CE).
Development began in 2002, and the project reached its maturity in 2025, in version 400, with a new base map and 99% of settlements verified and pinned.
The work’s scope is to create a comprehensive and thorough map of Ancient Greece that includes all known and probable locations that is, informative, accurate, and visually pleasing both in print and digital screens.
In the process, each place on the map was reviewed and verified with trusted sources (Map index, Bibliography).
The “Detailed • Complete” map of Ancient Greece includes every major and minor settlement in the index. It describes Greek Civilization’s expanse from Spain to India, and from the Black Sea to Egypt. Shaded areas and colored outlines, indicate the general spread of Hellenic Civilization’s influence and ideals in the different ancient historical periods. They are not “borders” or “empires”.
For the most part, the visual design pays homage to the old primary school wall maps and geography textbooks from the late 20th century, but some thematic maps feature experimental styles.
These maps are part of the author’s research in Ancient Greece and information design, and are crafted the old-fashioned way: designing the base map, then hovering over the ancient landscape, discovering facts, and hand-pinning one dot at a time.
Therefore, the map is a living document in a constant state of development, with new additions, corrections, and amendments presented in each version.
Version numbers are located in the map legend.
