The identification of ancient places with modern sites is not always certain. We have followed the certainty codes 1-4 in Parpola and Porter, Helsinki atlas (2001), and coloured the pins in the Google Earth (KMZ) files accordingly:
- All Google Earth content (KMZ files) used in People, Gods, and Places (8KB)
- All Google Sky content (KMZ files) showing Assyrian stars and constellations (8KB)
- Yellow: definitely known location (no "probably/perhaps/possibly" in People, Gods, and Places)
- Green: "probably" known to be a modern location
- Aqua: "perhaps" known to be a modern location
- White: "possibly" known to be a modern location
