The site, in 1997
A Getty Research Institute thesaurus of place names, covering current and historical cities, nations, mountains and rivers.
It sits in the Getty Vocabulary Program beside the Art & Architecture Thesaurus and the Union List of Artist Names. Museums and archives use it to catalogue art, and the public can search it free.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
