Abstract

This chapter explores the integration of conceptual maps with historical narratives to enhance the understanding and presentation of historical research. The study delves into the traditional components of historical research, including events, narratives, and sources, and how these can be augmented through digital tools. The authors present an innovative system, Historygraphia, which uses conceptual maps to visualize and interconnect historical data, making it easier to identify patterns and connections across different narratives. The system's design and implementation are discussed in detail, highlighting its potential to improve the clarity and consistency of historical narratives. Preliminary evaluations indicate that the use of conceptual maps promotes greater clarity and identifies information gaps, making it a valuable tool for historians. The chapter concludes with a discussion on the future applications of this method, including its potential to engage stakeholders such as museum visitors and school teachers in the valorization of local cultural heritage sites.
