ManyPastsHistory you can watch.Then walk through.
Documentaries built from maps and evidence, free on YouTube. Members move through the maps and get every member film as it’s released, for £5 a month.
Don’t just watch history. Move through it.
Recorded in the maps themselves. Drag a timeline and the world changes; step a chapter and the camera follows.
Big stories. A closer look.
Films made for members.
Members get every member film as it’s released. Two are in production now, funded by membership. We release them when they’re ready, not to a schedule.
Built from maps, models and evidence.
Every reconstruction in a ManyPasts film is labelled as one. Maps use modern relief for orientation; ancient coastlines, routes and extents are schematic.
Watch free. Explore as a member.
Members move through every map today and get every member film as it’s released. Each membership pays for the next one.
What is free?
Our public documentaries. They are released on YouTube, where anyone can watch them without an account. Their sources and production notes are published here.
What does membership add?
Exclusive films made only for members, released as they’re finished. You also get every interactive map we make: World Through Time, Hannibal’s Mediterranean and the lost North Sea of Doggerland, with the sources and evidence notes inside each. Membership pays for the next films.
Can I cancel?
Yes, any time, from your account. Your access continues to the end of the period you have paid for.
