Each dot is a village or neighborhood colored according to their predominant religious sect. I've even got the Alawis on there (light purple).
This is from my other project. Each dot is a city colored according to the predominant nationality of its population c. 431 BC. Different kinds of Greeks are various shades of blue, Etruscans are orange, Semites green, and so on. There are something like 900 of these dots on the map. (I have cut off about a hundred more that are in my database around the western Mediterranean and so on.) The database holds citations to my sources among other things. (Really, I didn't just make it all up.)
