The twin Worlds

texts · chronology · geography

Cicero World ↗

Speeches, letters, trials and people, with source passages and evidence limits.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Shared chronology, exact passage connections, study programme and atlas adapter.

Before further data sharing: Expand reviewed source-to-place links; preserve trial date uncertainty.

texts · chronology · geography

Caesar World ↗

Commentaries and ancient accounts alongside people, places and contextual dossiers.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Shared chronology, exact passage connections, study programme and atlas adapter.

Before further data sharing: Keep original and translation units distinct; preserve complete indexed references.

Shared source provider

texts · chronology

Cicero: life through sources ↗

Read biographical claims with their original passages, date bases and surrounding context.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Supplies the Cicero life entries in the shared chronology.

Before further data sharing: Retain exact edition/unit IDs and distinguish narrative claims from conventional dates.

Read alongside

texts · institutions

Cicero: Corpus & Law ↗

Explore legal institutions, source passages and the reconstruction of proceedings.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Linked reading; already listed as a Cicero World resource. No new case identity merge.

Before further data sharing: Review case and passage IDs before adding evidence-level crosswalks.

texts · reception

Cicero's ancient readers ↗

Compare later representations of Cicero while retaining the identity of each witness.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Linked reading; distinct reception claims and their source chains remain intact.

Before further data sharing: Match CTS work and passage units explicitly; do not count repeated testimony as independent evidence.

geography · institutions

Verres: an annotated atlas ↗

Read the geographical and evidentiary contexts of the Verres material.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Linked atlas; its episodes and layers are not imported as dated personal locations.

Before further data sharing: Review place IDs, source passages and coordinate meanings before federation.

chronology · texts

Chronology: the historians' spine ↗

Place the late Republic in a wider chronological and source-reading framework.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Linked chronology; its event model has not been merged with the twin source-entry model.

Before further data sharing: Compare date conventions, variants and event-versus-source-entry identity before alignment.

chronology · institutions

Consular Fasti ↗

Consult year-by-year officeholders alongside the historical reading.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Reference link; matching a year is not a person identity assertion.

Before further data sharing: Review person identifiers, office terms and disputed or supplementary entries.

geography · chronology

The Roman West: Iberia, Gaul & Africa ↗

Compare regional maps and chronological records across the western Mediterranean.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Related regional atlas; no automatic transfer of territorial layers or period bounds.

Before further data sharing: Review gazetteer IDs, geometry roles, chronology scope and individual layer licences.

geography · material

Figlinae: Roman production atlas ↗

Compare a material-evidence atlas with literary places and their different evidentiary limits.

Connection and evidence boundaries

Methodological and reading connection; workshops and inscriptions are not literary actor locations.

Before further data sharing: Preserve findspots, production sites, date ranges and source-specific rights.
