Description
A project of the Aikaterini Laskaridis Foundation
A new way of experiencing Europe’s most ancient literary culture, implanted in its unforgettable landscape.
ToposText is a new interface that links readers and travelers to Europe’s most ancient literary culture and to the Greek landscape that inspired it. TT presents 5000 places relevant to the ancient Greek world -- ancient cities and shrines, medieval castles and towers, modern museums and excavation sites -- primarily in Greece but including major places from Spain to the Caucasus. It links those places to the ancient authors who wrote about them in Greek or Latin. A large classical library married to an up-to-date gazetteer, freely available as a mobile application or this web site.
Education / Reference Tool:
- Accurate coordinates for thousands of Greek historical sites - Each site indexed to the ancient literary sources that mention it. - A huge, free, portable library of classical texts in English - Texts and places stored on-device – no internet access necessary. - Location-aware display of site information. - Recent archaeological information on many sites.
Recent changes: ToposText 3.2 fixes some data and map-handling issues for newer mobile phones. We added two new texts (Lucian's Macrobii and Cicero's de Republica) to reach 819 total, filled some gaps in the Peutinger Table, and cleaned up paragraph numbering and links to the Latin for Pliny's key Natural History and other texts. We added 96 new ancient sites, corrected several, and hundreds of new persons, tribes, and concepts, with much improved disambiguation and Wikipedia/Wikidata links.

Excellent This might not be the most intuitive app out there, but it is of true value for research. Possibly a game changer when it comes to how historical information and how it is presented. Very interesting in every way
★★★★★A Google user· May 25, 2017
Installed with no problem on my Samsung tablet. A BIG app, and it sometimes crashes when I use the filters for places with too many references, like Sparta. But an amazing number of places are included, and zooming in satellite view you see most of the coordinates are pretty accurate. A huge collection of texts, some very obscure, but it's a remarkable tool if you are interested in history, archaeology, or mythology.

Great historical value, bad app It's too bad that the app is so unusable. There is a wealth of historical content that fails to come up with this app.

Unfortunately the new version of the app crashes immediately after launch in my pixel 2 xl running Android 9. It doesn't even allow me to send crash report. I like the concept of the app very much, and I wish I could use it. I will certainly revise my rating once the crashing bug is fixed. Also, it would be greatly appreciated if texts in original language are also available, allowing more serious student of classical culture to check the original text easily. Thanks for the work and hope you can fix the bug soon!
