DescriptionEast Wallabi inset cropped from The Houtman Rocks (British Admiralty Chart 1723).jpg |
This is an image of British Admiralty Chart 1723, entitled "The Houtman Rocks". It shows an archipelago off the west coast of Australia now known as the Houtman Abrolhos. This map was published in 1845 based on a survey undertaken by John Clements Wickham and John Lort Stokes on board HMS Beagle in 1840. This is a scan of the copy belonging to the National Library of Australia (NLA). It has been slightly cropped, and colour balanced. |
