Ancient Greek battles maps

by **tsir24** on Sat Apr 04, 2009 11:52 am

I'm new around here and I don't know what is required to do in order to create a map.I know lots of things about battles that took place in Ancient Greece and I can assist any chartographer that's interested in making maps such as Hot Gates (Thermopylai,you know,it's where Leonidas fought with the 300 Spartans),battle of Marathon or Salamis etc.
I know there are maps for Alexander the Great and Peloponnesian War but they aren't related to the battles I have in mind..
Thanks in advance..John

I have all of the required skills to make a map, and I've been trying to find a good idea. Most of mine get shot down

Where do you want to start?

I understand that you are willing to combine your skills with my idea and knowledge on the matter.What do you mean by your question?
(I'm sorry:I speak English but it's not my native language and I didn't undestand your question :mrgreen:

I guess could you elaborate on your idea? What kind of map do you want to make? Do you have any drawings or maps you could show me?

I suppose a map about Hot Gates could become popular.I know how the battlefield looked like then,I know about the armies participating and I can find many information about it both in English and Greek.If you could give me 24 hours and some info by personal message on what exactly you want drawn,I can pesent you a drawing as a starting point..
