Hodder's History Lives:
My page on History Lives, Hodder & Stoughton's flagship hub for all
things to do with historical novels and historical novelists.
And here's a collection of sites I find myself using very often when researching or writing...
www.roman-britain.org: A venerable and comprehensive online resource for raw data about Roman Britain
orbis.stanford.edu: Stanford University's "Geospatial Network Model of the Roman World" allows you to plot journeys between any points in the Roman empire, and calculates route, time and cost. You can even load results as .kmz files into Google Earth.
www.pase.ac.uk: PASE is essentially a historical who's-who, a detailed database of all known historical figures in England from before 1066, hosted by King's College, London, and the Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC), University of Cambridge.
www.asnc.cam.ac.uk/personalnames/: Another output from ASNC - a database of every surviving Celtic personal name from Roman Britain.
www.fordham.edu/halsall/: The Internet History Sourcebooks Project, a large online collection of translated ancient and medieval sources in the public domain.
