• Same Shape, Different Millennia: every stone circle in Europe on one map

  

  I put all 3,451 stone circles in Europe’s open map data on one map and dated each tradition. Most records are Iron Age judge’s rings in Sweden, the oldest are in Portugal, and the ring seems to have been invented more than once.

• What pub names remember

  

  I grouped every named pub in Great Britain by name: 37,559 pubs and 16,349 names. Kings, coaching, railways, the arms of great families, and the local names that give a county away.
