The Hanseatic League was a confederation of merchant guilds and market towns in Northwestern and Central Europe, which came to dominate trade in the region for three hundred years. A digital platform has now been built which reveals the long-distance trade routes in Northern Europe between 1350 and 1650. The Research Center for Hanse and Baltic History, the Universities of Magdeburg, Aarhus and Nijmegen, and a team from the University of Göttingen worked together to make this possible. The map features historical road routes as well as a location database with more than 10,000 entries. It is published on http://www.

Coimbatore: Construction workers have stumbled upon a Sati stone, which is believed to be at least 300 years old, while digging a trench to lay electric cable on old market street in Tirupur city recently.
The stone was found barely a metre beneath the ground. Shortly after the stone was found, the public cleaned it, decorated it with neem leaves and applied turmeric on it.
When alerted, a team from Virarajendran Archaeological and Historical Research centre in the city turned up to study the stone, which is 75cm high and 45cm wide. S Ravikumar, director of the centre, said, “The stone depicts the images of a man and woman. The man is holding a gun in his left hand and sword in the right hand. The woman’s right hand is raised and is holding a mirror, while holding the man’s hand with her left hand. Clad in a neat dress, the woman has ornaments and pinned flowers to her hair.”
