DescriptionAddis Abbeba to Boma, Lake Rudolf and Baringo. East Africa Protectorate. (WOMAT-AFR-ABY-32-3).jpg |
Prismatic compass traverse from south of Baringo in western East Africa Protectorate 750 miles north-eastwards to Addis Abeba in central Abyssinia to a width of approximately 30 miles. Portrays hydrology, relief by form lines and spot heights, settlements, camps, place names and the expedition route, and includes topographical and ethnographical notes. The sheets also bear compilation notes, including reference to a previous survey by Captain P. Maud R.E.; a trimmed compilation note reads 'Made for Mr N.C. ... by A.C. Ho ... Dec. 1909'.The maps are unnumbered composite reproductions from nine originals, with notes revealing that at least two were in colour.The expedition route extends beyond the southern limit of these sheets, consistent with Hoey's (1911) account of it being 50 miles further south at Nakuru.The spelling 'Addis Abeba' is used on the map face; the variant 'Addis Abbeba' is used in the War Office ledger. 'Boma', as appears in the title, denotes an administrative centre and refers to 'Bako Boma'. |
