Major Changes on Helladic.Info (12/06/17)





Previously this website supported a miscellany of search methods.  There were separate methods for place-name search, place key search, and regional site search.  In this new release these methods have been combined into a generalized search method which now appears on all pages.  You can search for all the things you could formerly search for.  In addition any text string can be searched on and every instance of that string in the database will be returned with a link to the site page or feature page on which that string appears.  For example, strings such as 'vasilios', 'Simpson', 'Banou', etc. can now be searched on.

There is a new Feature Key page which gives basic information about all features (which are non Bronze Age things such as bridges, towns, churches, etc.).  Features can be searched for by using their feature key (which always begins with an 'F'), e.g. ‘F346’.

Sites can now be searched on by using the place key identifier (which always begins with 'C'), e.gg. 'C100', 'C5140'.

Regional site search now functions differently.  When you input a regional name such as ‘Laconia’, for example, you will see a list of all the sites in Laconia along with every other use of the term ‘Laconia’ on the web site.


There is a new Search Results page.

A new Database (MAP_Rev_0.045__12_06_17) has been delivered.  This new DB supports the enhanced search facility.

A change of this magnitude usually turns up glitches.  Please report problems to

An enhanced site usage section for the new changes is currently being prepared.

Mycenaean Atlas Project web site is up and running

The Mycenaean Atlas Project web site is released.


The Mycenaean Atlas  Project web site, www.helladic.info, is available to use.

The purpose of the site is to provide accurate lat/lon positions for all Early, Middle, and Late Helladic sites.  These positions are derived both from personal observation and from the literature.  

Bibliographies and times of construction/occupation are furnished for all sites but the primary purpose is to provide accurate positions.  Sites can be displayed on full-size maps or individual site reports can be generated.


Map Controls Page.  Helladic.info



Today DB release 33 was moved to the internet server.  It integrates some data kindly provided by Professor Sarah Murray of the University of Toronto.  This DB release provides additional sites in Phocis and Boeotia.


Place Key Report


A page that shows how to use the site is here.

Corrections or suggestions are gratefully received.  Communicate with the webmaster at bobconsoli ‘at’ gmail.com
