Project Khthon's interactive Global Mass Graves map
Project Khthon's Interactive Global Mass Graves map (GMG), developed by researchers at Project Khthon, serves as a comprehensive and accessible tool for understanding the global prevalence and distribution of mass graves, linked to war crimes, genocide, pandemics, and political violence. Through SATINT/OSINT based intelligence, meticulous research, and collaboration with local and international volunteers, the curated GMG map aims to raise awareness, support accountability, and aid efforts toward justice and reconciliation.
How Do We Work?
We use a complex combination of OSINT (open-source intelligence) and satellite data to locate mass graves and investigate war crimes. Sources such as social media or news outlets provide an approximate location and time frame, to which we apply exhaustive searches using satellite imagery from multiple providers and platforms. Information we uncover is then documented and forwarded for further action.
Embracing the truth
At Khthon we recognize truth for its intrinsic value. While our steadfast commitment to impartiality remains unwavering, we are equally resolute in our refusal to dilute or censor the events we have observed.
A student -led project
Our project has been established with a foundation rooted in empathy and a commitment to providing assistance to those who have endured some of the most extreme forms of human-inflicted suffering. Through Khthon, we endeavor to immortalize their narratives and bring awareness to their experiences.
