One map. Several ways to share it.

A figure for a paper, a sequence for a lecture, or a map your readers can explore. These are real Marches exports, all using the same pilgrimage sample and Ensign palette.

About this sample: eight European sites from the Marches pilgrimage example, with approximate modern coordinates and illustrative dates and source notes. A dated place appears from its stated year onward; undated places remain visible. The years mark selected events in the sample, not the founding of each site or a complete history of pilgrimage. Coastlines are modern.
