The World Timeline
From antiquity to now, across the world.
A sourced chronology of LGBTQ+ history, from a tomb at Saqqara around 2400 BCE to the marriages of 2025. Every entry is confidence-tagged and shows its own uncertainties. It is deep where the record is deep, honest where it is thin, and it grows. Begin with the Ancient World, or jump to any era.
How to read this
This timeline is built from several hundred sourced records and grows continually. It is strongest in the modern legal, medical, and movement history and in the Ancient World, and it is thin in places we name openly on the coverage dashboard. We will not fill those silences with invention; we will fill them with sourced research and community knowledge.
