Article showing meanders of Mississippi River over time
This is truly some awesome work. The original map is masterful and the LIDAR photos have a interesting quality.

What kind of music do you listen while mapping?

Very Cool. Not that Spartan shields had anything to do with seals, but one allegedly had a life size fly painted on his shield at Thermopylae. They didn't use the Lambda then. When told that the fly was too small to scare anyone, he said, "It'll be big enough when I stick it in his face." Awesome work Sue.

Maps That show us a new perspective
This 49 or 50 page presentation shows some interesting maps about the world. Much of it is US centric, but interesting comparisons and relationships are shown. Especially number 46.
And the extent of the Mongolian Empire is stunning. Alexander the Great was a nobody in comparison.

WIP Commission, Ancient Tombs
While Autosave is nice, I don't entirely trust it. I give all my file names a date and sometimes a datetime group, such as
CF_Battlemap_20201125.fcw or CF_Battlemap_202011250600.fcw. Sometimes, if I do something really big, I also add something like _1 or _a to the end.
JimP and LoopySue and many others, do similar things.
