I check the Map website and I like the overall layout viewer friendly map readability. I agree with the other participant in that the maps are rendered from a global perspective and unlike the maps presented in class they give an overall geographic view. I wonder (however visually appealing the maps may appear), about the accuracy of each map given that I will like to use them as instructional materials in my classroom.

Wow! Very cool site with some amazing maps. I am definitely going to use this site during my history lessons with my students. Thanks for sharing.

Great maps! These are excellent visual tools that can be used in the classroom. Students will be engaged because of their clarity and they are easy to read. It's difficult to find good maps to show to the students on a screen, however these maps seem perfect for whole group discussions. I had an opportunity to view a few of the ancient maps and they were excellent.

I wish I had had this link before I talked to my students about the Silk road map which came up in a reading when we were doing Response to Lit.

Prof. Dube has mentioned problems with his maps. One of my favorite sets of maps for World History are:

While I have not checked out everything that is done, I like that Talessman has used a base map that shows mountains and basic relief as well as rivers. Further when I look at his maps I don't have the feeling that I am forced to look at a particular culture or region. Many of the maps we use for class are designed to accentuate whichever culture or civilization we are studying to a degree that may create an isolationist perspective on that culture.
