Terms

TIME presents historical records for reading. A Moment page is not an offer to sell, mint, or transfer anything. Prices are not listed because none have been set. Unclaimed means no owner is recorded.

Dates follow the precision of the sources. A year or a circa date is not a claim about a particular day. Pictures are credited on each Moment page, with the license when one is known.

Three pictures do not have verified commercial-use rights and are not approved for public deployment: the 1960 photograph of Nigerian independence, the later reconstruction of the first website, and the ChatGPT screenshot.
