[Re:]Entanglements (Documents) Dataset

This dataset is a curated collection of historical document images, scraped from the [Re:]Entanglements project (https://re-entanglements.net).

This collection includes photographs of archival materials such as letters, logbooks, catalogue pages, herbarium specimens, statistical charts, and map sketches related to the N.W. Thomas archives. This dataset intentionally excludes some historical photographs of people, places, and objects, as well as all modern content, to create a focused dataset of ephemera.

This dataset is intended for research, educational, and AI development purposes.
