How to use

• Map: hover or tap a dot for a sage's details · tap a city name to see every sage of that academy across the generations.
• Zoom into the map to see the names of the sages displayed directly on the map.
• Pick a tractate and page to see every sage who appears on that page. The Daf Yomi button goes to today's Daf Yomi page.
• Clicking a sage opens a panel with their description and how many times they appear in the Talmud.
• Drag the timeline slider to a year, or click a generation or historical event. On a mobile device, the ☰ button opens the menu.
• Type a sage's name in the search box to find them directly on the map. The 🏷 Names button shows or hides sage names on the map.
• A ⚠ next to a sage on a page means the attribution there is chronologically doubtful; the note explains why.
