I've got a new batch of #PleiadesGazetteer stickers in hand! I'm looking forward to giving some out next Thursday in Iowa City where I'm participating in a panel at the annual meeting of the Association of Ancient Historians. My title is: "Catching up with the daughters of Atlas: the Pleiades gazetteer of ancient places at 20".

Since Monday, the #PleiadesGazetteer editorial college published 4 new and 83 updated place resources, reflecting the work of 7 people. The usual Monday blog post will summarize a full week's worth of such work, but meantime here's a #SneakPeek at one of the new ones. Authored by Jeffrey Becker, we now have a place resource for the Santuario rupestre di Silvano, a rock-cut sanctuary of Silvanus at Terracina: https://pleiades.stoa.org/places/346004678
