What's New at Prime Portal
As new entries are added to the site, they are listed here to make it easier to keep up to date.  From now on you will also be able to go back to What's New from previous months.

What's New - Current

 

News:
Things have been slow here for the last two years and I will make no excuses for it.  I am going to do my best to make certain daily updates start again and continue.  Don't worry, Prime Portal is not going away.

There is a new section on Prime Portal, The Archive of Antiquity.  This section will contain photos from ancient times up to the 20th century.  If anyone would like to help and add to this section, please contact me.  I would like to add more castles, ruins, ancient structures, and temples.  Also in this section, there will be siege weapons, spears, swords, cannons, and armor.  I would even like to see ships and other forms of transportation.

 

You can now follow updates on Facebook and Twitter.
