  9. Vandaag een klein experimentje gedaan! Normaal maak je met WordPress sites die afhankelijk zijn van een database. Maar soms is dat helemaal niet nodig. Soms is een statische site genoeg als je een informatieve site hebt zonder toeters en bellen.

    Gebruikte tools:
    🛠️ Local WP
    🛠️ Export WP pages to static HTML

    Resultaat: De complete site weegt nog geen 800 kB.

    Wil je weten of een statische website iets voor jou is? Stuur me gerust een berichtje!

  11. Since Monday, the #PleiadesGazetteer editorial college published 26 new and 207 updated place resources, reflecting the work of 12 people. The usual Monday blog post will summarize a full week's worth of such work, but meantime here's a #SneakPeek at one of the new ones. Authored by Tom Elliott (@[email protected]) and Divya Kumar-Dumas, we now have a place resource for Mamallapuram, an ancient settlement and modern town located on the east coast of peninsular India. It is the site of a large complex of Hindu temples dating to the 7th/8th centuries CE that is registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site: pleiades.stoa.org/places/11919.

    The city is mentioned in Tamil literature beginning in the 8th century CE. The exact location of the city's harbor and its possible identification with non-Tamil sources (especially Roman ones) remain inconclusive.

  14. Since Monday, the #PleiadesGazetteer editorial college has published 15 new and 41 updated place resources, reflecting the work of 10 people. The usual Monday blog post will summarize a full week's worth of such work, but meantime here's a #SneakPeek at an update to a place resource originally derived from a Barrington Atlas feature. Tom Elliott has recently worked on the entry for the Chabina river, a tributary of the Euphrates in eastern Turkey whose course incorporated portions of three drainages that are differently named today: pleiades.stoa.org/places/65843

    Among the updates: detailed modern geometry from OpenStreetMap and modern toponyms sourced from the BAtlas directory and other sources. References have been cleaned, and a link added for the IGLSyr reference to the digitized copy at Persée, whence the Latin name. A connection has also been made to the record for the Cendere Bridge, findspot of the inscriptions.
