Two new history websites
For those interested in the history of Asia Minor, the Black Sea area and Constantinople / Byzantium
This resource is maintained by the Foundation of the Hellenic World and co-funded by the EU. The Encyclopedia covers Asia Minor, the Black Sea area and Constantinople / Byzantium from ancient times and includes articles, bibliographies, a directory of related weblinks and an historical interactive atlas with audio-visual material. Some parts of the site are still under construction. Texts are multilingual, but there is a "translate" facility. The site has both simple and advanced search options.
For those interested in modern Japanese history and / or the history of the Second World War
This website has been created by Professor Cary Karacas of City University of New York (College of Staten Island) and includes an online archive of documents, film reels and photographs relating to the bombing of Japan during World War 2, from both Japanese and American perspectives
