Group 1: Roman Amphitheaters using Tableau Public #25

Hello dear everyone, I seem to have a problem when uploading the csv file in Tableau Public (see screenshot). I tried it with the training-csv-documents (such as by Miriam Posner and the Women-statistics for the other group), and it seems to be only the file on the Roman Amphitheaters not working.

Are there any ideas how to proceed? Can I manipulate the text myself in order to make it work? I've been experimenting a bit, but so far unsucceffully. Thank you very much for your help,

Hannah

Here's my Tableau visualisation

Further possibilities of visualisation:

A map visualizing A) where and B) how many amphittheaters were built. Problems / Challenges: The amphittheatres must be A) excavated and B) published in order to have this data. Roman Amphitheatres from Egypt are for example not included in this one.
A more complex odel with the amphittheatres shown by country, quantity of theatres and their period.

and a further visualisation of amphitheatres based on quantity, origin and their date.

Hi Group 1, Some people in the other group working with this dataset have had some issues with parsing the data (and Hannah I think you may have found something similar with Tableau!). It is possible to find a workaround as I think you managed to do Hannah but just in case anybody else is having the same issue I've added a new version of the dataset which should parse more effectively: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SASDigitalHumanitiesTraining/Visualisation/master/datasets/roman%20amphitheaters%202.csv Naomi
