A treat for those who love maps: Pompeii

Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, we can now have a look at ancient Pompeii set in today’s town. Its layout looks amazingly modern.

This Pompeii Bibliography and Mapping Project (PBMP) is pure magic. To quote their explanation on the use of these maps: 

You can start to explore Pompeii in the map embedded below, or go to the full site for more space and options. If you want to customize the map or make a presentation from it, sign in to / sign up for your ArcGIS Online account and save a copy to your own webspace. The link is at the upper right of the embedded map page. Below the map is additional information about the files, the information they contain, and their display.

Have fun!
