Talk:Mellor Ancient History

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page is OK, but needs more. Lots more. I'd like to start a discussion on what the "lots" might be.

Want: A photograph for each of the eras

What I'd like to have is a photograph of something found for each era, to give the dating some perspective and the timeframe some sense of continuity. People will then be able to see progression, rather than see periods that may or may not entirely click with them.

Want: A photograph for each of the major finds

Again, this is a pretty obvious one. The problem is not in finding an image - there are plenty - but finding an image that won't have licensing issues. That can be tougher.

(Well, for the pot, I'd REALLY love a VRML or other 3D representation, but I don't think MediaWiki has support for anything like that, and most browsers certainly don't.)

Want: A non-OS map of the projected site, with known structures clearly marked and known digs also labelled

Now I'm asking for a lot, but the only way to display the map without running foul of the Ordinance Survey copyrights is to not use their data.
