The Andes Web Ring

Ancient Monuments in Google Earth 

Spanning the globe, more than 15,000 placemarks of ancient monuments and anthropogenic features visible in satellite imagery, includes most of the 5,000+ monuments with coordinates in my Excel applet. The current version no longer embeds the 5,000 Panoramio photos I selected for archaeological value. Open the files in Google Earth and click the placemarks to display informational balloons and zoom in on sites.
