- This StoryMap, which showcases Caesar’s significant battles during the Civil War, is best shown in a spatial format because the real lack of strategy can be seen.

- Roma Antiqua and the Syrian Liaison
- Having historically encapsulated massive stretches of European, North African, and Middle Eastern lands, the Roman Empire breached and held dominance over tens of millions of denizens across various culturally rich lands, one of which came to be known as Syria. Provincia Syria was a highly contested terrain located at the gate of Asia. These geographically hollow lands between the Mediterranean and the Euphrates proved to be ethnically strong and would become the most highly contested in almost all of human history. The Syrian Roman relationship would open the flood gates to a new era of provincial clout, leaving the Roman Empire unrecognizable., San Diego State University

- Roma Dress and Identity (screenshots)
- Historical fashion is an area of study that is often overlooked as frivolous or superficial when it comes to studying history and historical cultures. Roman dress and identity reveal and reflect underlying beliefs and sometimes contradictory elements of Roman society--namely its glorification of traditional Roman virtues. This timeline explores changing fashion trends as way to trace changes in Roman values and efforts to assert social dominance. The timeline also discusses how the development and treatment of Rome’s national garment, the Toga, reflects the conflicts between traditional Roman virtue and status and the eventual break-down of a Roman identity., Final Digital Humanities assignment for Roman History (HIST 503), taught by Dr. Elizabeth Pollard.
