Datasets

CultureTechLens publishes its registries as open datasets — verified against primary sources, corrected in the open, and free to cite. Every dataset below carries its version, its date, and its count, stated the same way everywhere: 8,534 archive records · 8,388 source references · counts as of November 4, 2026.

The CultureTechLens Knowledge Graph — People & Places (KG333 dataset edition)

333 entities — 306 people + 27 places · as of November 4, 2026

This is a 333-entity dataset edition of the CultureTechLens Knowledge Graph — not the whole graph. The full graph lives at the Knowledge Graph, and the published graph dataset is on Zenodo under concept DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23403147.

The people records carry person-specific AEO answers, five-question clusters, and live-verified Wikidata identifiers (296 verified QIDs; 7 confirmed knowledge-graph gaps published as gaps; 1 partial gap). The Places wave adds 16 museums of African and African American culture in the US and worldwide, and 11 statues and monuments — 23 with verified QIDs and 4 recorded as no-enwiki gaps.

Download: CSV · XLSX

Version: KG333 (2026-11-04), building on KG300 + Addendums 1–4. Methodology: live Wikidata API verification (description + English Wikipedia sitelink match); every correction documented in-sheet — see Methodology.

Limitations: a 333-entity dataset edition, not the full graph; 8 records carry confirmed or partial Wikidata gaps, published as gaps.
