For tagged events within Timeline, what are the most used reference. 

I don't have International Standard Bible Encyclopedia, and it shows many times as grayed out for items on the timeline is this one that you should have?

What others would be better, list please.

    James Hitchcock, HISTORY OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH: From the Apostolic Age to the Third Millennium - seems to be used a fair bit - I ended up buying it to improve functionality.

    Lee, I can't speak for anyone else, but all the timeline events I checked were Lexham Bible Dictionary's or nothing.  Mostly nothing (95%?)

    You're far ahead of me in finding 'something'.

    Denise it started the other day i clicked on 3000 BC Cuneiform writing comes into common use, and it has four references but all of them are in the ISBE. 

    Which at the time I did not have so I started looking in detail and many others dated before 3000 BC are also linked to ISBE, So i have it now.

    It would be nice to know which are the main resources Logos used as Tagging resources for the Timeline events.

    I suspect that the "must have" resources are going to vary by period.  I also noted that the History of the Catholic Church and ISBE would beef up a lot of my references.  Some of the outliers were in the Anchor Bible Dictionary, Harper Collins Bible Dictionary, and A Catholic Dictionary (Addis & Arnold).  But I was looking entirely in the Middle Ages.

    Well, I tried some more periods ranging from the chocolate period (before creation) to the pre-post modern.  Thanking my lucky stars I have LBD.  I think I found 1 non-LBD.  Good thing I didn't buy the $15,000 library I bought.

    There's an old post here (http://community.logos.com/forums/p/58229/414592.aspx#414592) that shows tagged resources at that time. I don't currently have an updated list (or one with counts of the number of links), sorry.

    Thanks Bradley for checking on this.

    I also found that post early this morning.
