(monday) history in your game

[alsih2o]

well, real life kicked me in the pants this week with another kiln problem. the good news is i got a loan to build a bigger, better kiln. the bad news is i have had very little time to put together a history thread.

so this week i am linking linking links. here are some of the link collections and medieval history pages i frequent weekly to get info for these.

Find your own darned history!

med. lit. and history- http://www.chss.montclair.edu/english/furr/medieval.html

the labyrinth, lots of dead links and lots of goodness in between- http://www.georgetown.edu/labyrinth/labyrinth-home.html

a lecture collection- http://www.historyguide.org/ancient/ancient.html

med and ren history links page- http://www.historesearch.com/medieval.html

mostly snippets here, not great for anything in-depth, but quicker answers- http://bradman8715.tripod.com/

"academic" info, built for teachers, great for students- http://www.academicinfo.net/histmed.html

a decent link collection from about.com- http://historymedren.about.com/

I.M.S. internet medieval sourcebook- if it ain't here, you are looking wrong. GREAT resource- http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/sbook.html

another "resource guide" some cool stuff, annoying colors tho- http://web.uccs.edu/~history/index/medieval.html

timelines, great for worldbuilders- http://www.btinternet.com/~timeref/

"virtual library" of med. history- http://www.msu.edu/~georgem1/history/medieval.htm
