+ This section of the Seshat database focuses on the essential aspects of polity organization and dynamics. It includes data on alternative name, original name, and capital, which provide information on how polities were identified. Variables such as degree of centralization, peak years, and duration reveal the administrative, temporal, and structural characteristics of past societies. Additionally, this section captures the relationships and interactions between polities, including preceding entity, succeeding entity, and relationship to preceding entity. Religious and cultural contexts are represented through variables like religion, religious tradition, and scale of supracultural interaction. Furthermore, linguistic and territorial attributes are documented, including language, language genus, linguistic family, and UTM zone. - -

+ This section of the historical database delves into the tools, strategies, and innovations that shaped military capabilities in past polities. It catalogs a wide array of military technologies, from basic weapons like spears, swords, and daggers to advanced systems like crossbows, composite bows, and gunpowder-based firearms. Protective equipment such as helmets, chainmail, and plate armor is documented alongside fortifications like stone walls, moats, and long defensive walls. This section also includes entries on transportation and battlefield support, such as horses, camels, and elephants, as well as specialized vessels for naval engagements. By coding these variables systematically, we aim to provide insights into the evolution of warfare, reflecting how societies adapted their military technologies to defend territories, expand influence, or engage in conflict. This serves as a valuable resource for researchers interested in the history of military technologies and the socio-political impact of war in human history. -

-Key variables include measures of syncretism, the prevalence of official and elite religions, and the frequency of violence, both governmental and societal, against religious groups. Additionally, the dataset explores government restrictions on religious practices, property ownership, and the circulation of religious literature. It delves into taxation based on religious adherence, governmental obligations for official recognition, and limitations on constructing religious buildings. The coding captures not only the presence or absence of certain conditions but also the actual religions associated with official status and elite favor. Furthermore, the prevalence of widespread religions, including the most widespread and up to the fourth most widespread, provides a nuanced understanding of religious landscapes. - +
