This app is amazing for almost any Greek site in history. However I have some suggestions that will improve the user’s experience with this. 1. Search by period or era. It would be nice to search by the different periods and Archeological eras. 2. Mult-select site type. In the the drop down menu there is an option to select an site type. It would be nice to select more then one. Thank you.

Thank you!!!! Super app brings you right to primary sources at all locations in Greece. Dictean cave? Euripides text at your fingertips! So cool!!!

I don't usually write reviews but ToposText is simply amazing. It has an incredible database of texts from throughout the Mediterranean and all of them are linked to ancient sites. I work with great archaeology and use this app to find the most remote tiny sites, which are correctly GIS referenced and linked to all available literature. I use it on my phone all the time as a reference and as an "ancient GPS". It probably would be even more amazing on a tablet - this app makes me want to get an iPad.
