About The Minecraft Archive Project
The Minecraft Archive Project (MAP) is a web-based preservation initiative created by Leonard Richardson to prevent the loss of player-created Minecraft content, inspired by the disappearance of 1990s ZZT game worlds shared via defunct BBSes and online services. MAP collects content from the discontinued official Minecraft forum, Planet Minecraft, and CurseForge, organizing it into ~50GB ZIP files paired with HTML finding aids. It also hosts third-party Minecraft-related archives via its Internet Archive collection, and catalogs public Minecraft-related Git repositories by creation date.
