Engineering Historical Memory (EHM) is an online database in the digital humanities, serving as an open-access research tool for primary historical materials focused on 11th to 15th century Afro-Eurasia.[1][2][3] It adopts computational methods to make historical documents machine-understandable.[4] EHM parses traditional artifacts such as historical maps, travel accounts, chronicles and codices into computer-readable formats, and links them to secondary multi-media references,[5] a process referred to as the "automatic narrative generation".[6] This approach generates cultural narratives and facilitates interaction with the historical artifacts, making them accessible to audiences from various backgrounds.[7]
