Illustrated maps let you compare what is happening across the globe at various moments in time.

While the Santorini volcano was wiping out the Minoan civilization, flushing toilets were being invented in the Indus Valley (Pakistan).

The Greeks held the earliest Olympic Games while the Zapotec built pyramids in Mexico.
