Significant Appearance and Abandonment of Red Names

This table is extracted from http://www.maphistory.info/RedNamesSummaryTable.doc

This in turn was based on three Microsoft World tables that comprise the original detailed analysis:

http://www.maphistory.info/RedNamesAnalysisTo1400.doc

http://www.maphistory.info/RedNamesAnalysisUpTo1450.doc

http://www.maphistory.info/RedNamesAnalysis1450Onwards.doc

There is a comprehensive place-name listing (i.e. including those in black) in an EXCEL spreadsheet:

http://www.maphistory.info/PortolanChartToponymyFullTable.xls

For the accompanying essay see http://www.maphistory.info/RedNamesCommentary.html

(e.g. for the equivalent page on the introduction of red names)

For other pages on Red Names see http://www.maphistory.info/RedNamesMenu.html

For the wider context see http://www.maphistory.info/ToponymyMenu.html

and for the homepage: http://www.maphistory.info/portolan.html

The 18 pages of the full listing are here reduced to eight because of the exclusion (a) of those names that already appear in red in 1311/1313 and are still there in 1600,

and (b) those considered 'rare' or 'unique'. The default sort is geographical. To return to that after sorting on one or more other columns, select the first two columns

Geog. sort.
