"The twentieth century has been a century of war. It began with the Boer War in South Africa and ended with the Gulf War in Kuwait and Iraq. This tragic legacy suggests that citizens of the twenty-first century have a shared responsibility to attempt to understand how and why these conflicts occurred and to discover how peace efforts contributed to the resolution of international conflicts. "

Primary sources devoted to helping people understand why the C20th was a time of such visceral conflict. If you believe Niall Ferguson it had to do with ethnic diversity in regions of deteriorating economic conditions and declining imperial control. My high school history teacher reckoned it was ideologies. Many of you will no doubt have other ideas...

A collection of online maps provided by Yale University Library. It seems it might require a plug-in to view them. It seems they are in the process of digitising even further so the collection should grow.

Just checked this site out for Medieval History maps. The site is only in Beta phase at the moment and only covers up to the end of Ancient History. i.e. 500AD

This provides a database of archaeological sites currently under excavation, including images of artefacts and some historical information. You search by region and then get a list of sites currently being worked on, so it can be a bit time-consuming but would be excellent for student research.

This is where using the net gets tricky for students. We tell them never to use wikis (for good reason) and then something like this comes along. It's awesome. A fast-growing wiki (a site that anyone can add to) of historical sources. Shows why we need something like Diigo to filter the internet and provide guidance for the students regarding what to use in their research. Run by the same people as Wikipedia (Wikimedia). If you're ever looking for historical images can I suggest Wikimedia Commons.
