The Mediterranean Map Library

The Mediterranean Map Library (MML) team is pleased to inform that a new version of MML site is online. There are references concerning Near-East countries: Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and the towns of Beirut and Damascus.
The Meditarranean Map Library is a project of the Maison MediterranĪ¹enne des Sciences de l'Homme (MMSH) in Aix-en-Provence. This project realizes a collective repertory and catalogue of maps and plans of towns of Mediterranean countries. This catalogue primarily consists of map series rather than in single maps or plans. Its main characteristic is a graphic interface allowing the access to information: documents are identified by their location. Each map series goes with a descriptive notice and is represented by a graphic index drawn on a background enabling location spotting.
