Mapping Buddhist monasteries : 200 -1200 CE
** This wiki-site is a "work in progress" and so content is liable to change at short notice for the time being **
The aim of the project is to catalogue and map details of Buddhist monasteries and convents built across South Asia, South East Asia, Central Asia and East Asia between 200 and 1200 CE. Currently, over 500 are entered on the wiki. The content can be searched by region or tag.
As well as viewing location data for each monastery or convent, the wiki also has country / region chronologies and a detailed bibliography section with links to full-text where content is available via open-access. In depth information and pictures of individual monasteries are also available through links to other websites (although these seem to be particularly aimed at tourists and travellers)
Information about and resources for the religions collection at the Library of the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
