Pleiades maps for place views, search, and the home page have been adjusted to set larger maximum bounds. This change means that these maps can pan and zoom to any location in a latitude/longitude-bounded area that covers Africa, Asia, and Europe. The maps were previously more tightly constrained. Location maps were always and remain unconstrained.

A good example exploiting the new range is the site of Teniky in Madagascar: pleiades.stoa.org/places/37731

Pleiades web services are currently undergoing maintenance.

We are presently working on moving Pleiades to a new server. During the maintenance window, which began at 11am US Eastern Daylight Time on 10 April 2019 and will run until 5pm US EDT, Pleiades will be periodically in a “read-only” mode (i.e., you will not be able to login as a contributor or to make changes).

Contributors should avoid making changes to content during the maintenance window as it is possible that content saved or submitted during this period could be lost in the transition.

It is also possible that, for short periods, the entire site may be unavailable, although we hope to be able to avoid that circumstance entirely.
