Really good maps for historians

I am putting together visual presentations for my class in History of Islamic Civilization, and in search of the elusive really good map of the Middle East in the 20th century, I've come across these two sites:

Le Monde diplomatique English edition
, which has far more than maps, but has a whole section of maps both historic and current.

Atlas-historique.net, which is just what it says it is.

Both sites feature striking and clear color maps.
