Balkan Folk Music Archive. Heather Meeker scanned in a huge archive of Balkan folk sheet music and made it available on this website.

Open Digital Archive, collections of memory items preserved by Armenian families all around the world, as well as concise microhistories of these families. Includes a video, Legends of Armenian kef Music, a history of Armenian American music by Ara Dinkjian. I've been looking for an Armenian recording I remember that included the melody from the beginning of Bach's Musette, with men singing "Ha, hey hey hey" on the fourth measure, and someone pointed me to this site. So far no luck finding it.

The Sound of Greek by Angelos Kanlis. Extremely geeky technical breakdown of Greek phonology.

Learn the Georgian alphabet by Apprenti Polyglotte, a friendly, hands-on series of pages to help learn the Georgian alphabet.

Wow howdy the

I love super niche archives/sites, even when I'm not actually interested in the topic myself. Just the fact that they exist and someone made them is awesome!
