Summary
[edit]DescriptionRodrigues map.png |
English: A map of Southeast Asia—one of the first European ones to rather accurately chart the area despite Ptolemy and al-Khwarizmi's mistaken accounts—compiled by assembling the maps from consecutive pages of Rodrigues's book (folio #s labelled on the map). Some text omitted. For discussion of its possible origin in a native Javanese map and a conjectural correction of its treatment of the Gulf of Thailand, see J. Sollewijn Gelpke's 1995 "Alfonso de Alburquerque's Pre-Portuguese 'Javanese' Map, Partially Reconstructed from Francisco Rodrigues' Book" in Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land-, en Volkenkunde, Vol. 151, No. 1, p. 90. |
