Join us in Frankfurt 15โ€“17 November, 2024 to network with DH projects and platforms working on places and persons in Near/Middle Eastern history. Students and scholars are welcome!

Before and after, during the whole month of November, we'll be working online to link places and persons from these various projects. Bring your own project data or jump in with any of the participating projects!ย 

At the in-person meetup in Frankfurt, we'll learn more about each dataset and discuss challenges and solutions for linking our data.
