Last week the Pleiades editorial college published 6 new place resources and approved updates to 228 existing place resources. Work by Jeffrey Becker, Catherine Bouras, Tom Elliott, Greta Hawes, Brady Kiesling, Gabriel McKee, R. Scott Smith, and Richard Talbert.

New Place Resources

  • A place in Africa Proconsularis that is included on the Peutinger map.
    Creators: Richard Talbert
    Contributors: Jeffrey Becker
  • Buddhist temple at Angkor, located approximately 20 km northeast of the main temple complex. Dedicated to Shiva, the temple was constructed during the 10th century CE during the reigns of Rajendravarman II and Jayavarman V.
    Creators: Gabriel Mckee
    Contributors:
  • A toponym (in the ablative: "Monte") attested in Peutinger Map routes between Sitifis and Cuicul (and possibly between Ad Olivam and Ruzai). It is perhaps to be identified with the ancient site of Mopht(i?), modern El-Kasr in Algeria's Beni Fouda municipality (Sétif Province), but if so presents problems of interpretation as the Peutinger Map separately treats a "Mopti Municipium". See further the "details" section of this resource.

  • A prehistoric settlement at the south-east end of the present-day island of Therasia, inhabited from the early Bronze Age through the end of the Middle Cycladic period.
    Creators: Tom Elliott
    Contributors:
  • Ruglata was an ancient place in Numidia (the Roman province of Africa Proconsularis). It is included as a name on the Tabula Peutingeriana but it has no symbol.
    Creators: Richard Talbert
    Contributors: Jeffrey Becker; Tom Elliott
  • Vicus Valeriani is attested in the Tabula Peutingeriana as Vico Valeriani.
