First let me say that I know there's a reference somewhere where Ed calls Anchorome a collection of islands. Generally though, its become accepted in the community that Anchorome is the continent above Maztica, and I assume there's some islands off this continents coasts that fulfill the collection of islands concept.

That being said, I wanted to see if there's any good gathering of data on Anchorome, as I'm becoming more and more invested in studying this old 2e lore. I note that Anchorome (at least the areas involving the stuff in City of Gold) seem to be more like Rashemen than anywhere else. Its definitely a land where honoring the spirits rather than the gods is seen.

Other than "city of gold" is there really any other lore out there? I'm just getting around to reading the stuff on DM's Guild dealing with the Maztica revision for 5e as well, including the "Grand History of the True World".

In my ad hoc fantasy world, Anchorome is the Society for Creative Anachronism. See the SCA's Map of the Knowne World here ... http://www.sca.org/geography/ . Fits Anchorome just nicely!!
