Fra Mauro Transcriptions Xcel Transscriptions of Notes & legends on Fra Mauro's Map of 1459 ID# Transcription Geographic Area Notes Reference Location The Maldives and, perhaps, Malé, the main city of the islands. Mentioned by Ibn Battuta, who writes "al Mahal (nom 1 Mahal Indian Ocean générique de toutes les îles)"; (Voyageurs arabes, p. 921), and again: "Ten days after embarking at Calecut we (03, n 25) arrived at the Islands called Dhibat-al-Mahal..." (Hobson-Jobson, p. 546). See 4. The inscription comes at the southernmost strip of Africa, opposite the indication of the Auster. It refers to the unknown expanse of the open ocean; cfr. Seneca, Suasoriarum liber, 1.1: "ovae ac terribilis figurae, magna etiam Oceano portenta, quae profunda ista vastitas nutrit; confusa lux alta caligine et interceptus tenebris dies; ipsum vero grave et defixum mare et aut nulla aut ignota sidera" (SENECA, Sententiae, p. 331); see also ADAMUS BREMENSIS, p. 497, where he speaks of "illam tenebrosam rigentis occeani caliginem, quae vix oculis penetrari valeret". The Arab term for the Atlantic Ocean was the "Sea of Obscurity" or the "Tenebrous Ocean" (Az-Zulmah); 2 Here begins the dark sea Indian Ocean see, for example, IDRISI, 4.1: "Personne ne sait ce qui existe au-delà de l'océan Ténébreux, ni n'a pu rien en (03, n 40) apprendre de certain, à cause des difficultés qu'opposent à la navigation la profondeur des ténèbres, la hauteur des vagues, la fréquence des tempêtes, la multiplicité des animaux et la violence des vents. Il y a cependant dans cet océan un grand nombre d'îles, soit habitées, soit désertes; mais aucun navigateur ne cherche à la traverser ni à y aller vers la haute mer; on y fait du cabotage, sans s'éloigner de la côte. Les vagues de cette mer déferlent tel un mur haut comme une montagne que rien ne peut fendre. Même s'il en était autrement, il serait impossible de les franchir".

In Fra Mauro's day Kilwa was one of the most important Arab-Persian 5 Chelue Tanzania trading colonies on the eastern coast of Africa; it was also the most southerly, and the hub for all trade from the (03, o 36) south; cfr. TIBBETTS (1971), pp. 208 e 394 The presence of islands such as those described by Fra Mauro is borne out by numerous (non-cartographical) Islamic sources. However, once again, Fra Mauro's own source here was Marco Polo: "Oltre il Chesmacoran a cinquecento miglia in alto mare verso mezodí vi sono due isole, l'una vicina all'altra trenta miglia: e in una dimorano gli uomini senza femine, e si chiama isola Mascolina; nell'altra stanno le femine senza gli uomini, e si chiama isola Feminina. Quelli che abitano in dette due isole sono una cosa medesima, e sono cristiani battezzati. Gli uomini vanno all'isola delle femine e dimorano con quelle tre mesi continui, cioè marzo, aprile e maggio, e ciascuno abita in casa con la sua moglie, e dopo ritorna all'isola Mascolina, dove dimorano tutt'il resto dell'anno facendo le loro arti These two islands are inhabited by Christians. In one of them, called senza femina alcuna. Le femine tengono seco i figliuoli fino a' dodici anni, e dopo li mandano alli loro padri; se ella è 6 Nebila, live the women; in the other, called Mangla, leave the men, Indian Ocean (03, P 10) femina la tengono fin ch'ella è da marito, e poi la maritano negli uomini dell'isola" (MPR, III, chap. 34; see Y, 2, p. who pass only three months a year with the women 404: "When you leave this kingdom of Kesmacoran, which is on the mainland, you go by sea some 500 miles towards the south; and then you find two Islands, Male and Female, lying about 30 miles distant from one another. The people are baptized Christians, but mantain the ordinances of the Old Testament; thus when their wives are with child they never go near them till their confinement, of for forty days thereafter. In the Island however which is called Male, dwell the men alone, without their wives or any other women. Every year when the month of March arrives the men all set out for the other Island, and tharry there for three months, to wit, March, April, May, dwelling with their wives for that space. At the end of those three months, they return to their own Island, and pursue their husbandry 7 Maabase Kenya? Mombasa (Kenya)? Mombasa (Zanzibar)? (03, P 33) 8 Island of Starna Indian Oc.

See the discussion in the introductory essay. The term "lach" (with its variants "lak", "lagh", "legh", etc.) indicates a seasonal watercourse, whilst the term "webi" 13 River Allech River of Africa refers to one that flows all year round. In the region between Kenya and Somalia there are numerous watercourses (03, r 30) (09, a 31) whose name derives from the term Allech - for example, Lak Dera, Lagh Bogal, Lak Bor, etc. The island of Madagascar; see the discussion in the introductory essay.

(04, m 6) within this cape they do not hinder navigators The island of Madagascar (see the discussion in the introductory essay). From Ramusio onwards, various theories have been put forward as to the origin and meaning of the term "diab"; Ramusio himself argued it referred to Madagascar (RAMUSIO, v. 3, p. 70) whilst LA RONCIÈRE, v. 2, p. 133 confused it with Philostorgius's island of Divus - see Isola diu 275 - and CERULLI (1935) identified it with some small islands in the Indian Ocean. Even when not obviously incorrect, such hypotheses appear rather unconvincing for various reasons. One should bear in mind what Fra Mauro himself has to say on the geopgraphy of Southern Africa: "Perché ad alguni par da nuovo che io parli de questa parte meridional, la qual quasi està incognita a li antichi, perhò io respondo che tuto questo desegno da sayto 18 Diab. This is the name of the island Southern Africa in suso io l'ò habuto da queli proprij che sono nasudi qui, che sono stà religiosi, i qual cum le suo man me hano (04, o 1) (03, o 40) desegnato tute queste provincie e citade e fiumi e monti cum li suo nomi etc." 98;. This observation makes it clear that his sources of information regarding this part of the continent were filtered through "Ethiopian" documents. Such being the linguistic and cultural framework from which he derived his information, one can argue for a relation between the term diab and djabarti, which derives from the Ethiopian agbert, "servant (of God)"; this word was in fact used to indicate the lands and inhabitants of southern Ethiopia under Islamic rule. The name may have been used generically by Fra Mauro to indicate all those areas of south-eastern Africa regarding which he had information - locations that were generally the site of Arab trading colonies (cfr. Encyclopaedia of Islam, v. 2, p. 355). To Around 1420 a ship, or junk, from India crossed the Sea of India towards the Island of Men and the Island of Women, off Cape Diab, The term çoncho (junk) appears to indicate that this is reference to a Chinese ship that has sailed well beyond between the Green Islands and the shadows.

  • The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth As a Political Space: Its Unity and Complexity*
    Chapter 8 The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth as a Political Space: Its Unity and Complexity* Satoshi Koyama Introduction The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (Rzeczpospolita) was one of the largest states in early modern Europe. In the second half of the sixteenth century, after the union of Lublin (1569), the Polish-Lithuanian state covered an area of 815,000 square kilometres. It attained its greatest extent (990,000 square kilometres) in the first half of the seventeenth century. On the European continent there were only two larger countries than Poland-Lithuania: the Grand Duchy of Moscow (c.5,400,000 square kilometres) and the European territories of the Ottoman Empire (840,000 square kilometres). Therefore the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was the largest country in Latin-Christian Europe in the early modern period (Wyczański 1973: 17–8). In this paper I discuss the internal diversity of the Commonwealth in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and consider how such a huge territorial complex was politically organised and integrated. * This paper is a part of the results of the research which is grant-aided by the ‘Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research’ program of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science in 2005–2007. - 137 - SATOSHI KOYAMA 1. The Internal Diversity of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Poland-Lithuania before the union of Lublin was a typical example of a composite monarchy in early modern Europe. ‘Composite state’ is the term used by H. G. Koenigsberger, who argued that most states in early modern Europe had been ‘composite states, including more than one country under the sovereignty of one ruler’ (Koenigsberger, 1978: 202).

  • The Development of Maritime Hydrography and Methods of Navigation
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF MARITIME HYDROGRAPHY AND METHODS OF NAVIGATION Lecture delivered by H enri BENCKER,on April 5th 1943. The “ Société des Conférences de iMonaco ” has kindly done me the honour to call upon me to treat before you a subject which is possibly a little dry although dealing with things of the sea, viz. the development of maritime hydrography and methods of navigation. I am all the more willing to fulfil this mission as we are indebted to the generosity of the Princely Government for the foundation and upkeep, since the year 1921, of a special Institute, situated in the Principaliiy and entrusted with the co-ordination of all questions relating to the world's hydrography. But, first of all, what is meant by “ hydrography ” ? It is customary to designate under this heading that branch of geographical science dealing with the regimen of current or stable waters which is peculiar to a given continental area. But from the stand point which concerns us, maritime hydrography is really the art of compiling charts and drawing up documents for the use of mariners with regard to the safety of their navigation and in view of ensuring the proper steering of their ships in all navigable parts, including oceans, seas and adjacent coastal zones. It includes the carrying out of necessary maritime surveys for the security of navigation viz. : coastal triangulation and shore topography measurements, the taking of soundings and sea depths, the description of coastlines, the study of tides and sea-currents. Its aim is to publish in an appropriate form for the use of navigators all data relating to the correct configuratiotf of navigable regions and all nautical information which may be of service to them.

  • Cartography and the Conception, Conquest and Control of Eastern Africa, 1844-1914
    Delineating Dominion: Cartography and the Conception, Conquest and Control of Eastern Africa, 1844-1914 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Robert H. Clemm Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: John F. Guilmartin, Advisor Alan Beyerchen Ousman Kobo Copyright by Robert H Clemm 2012 Abstract This dissertation documents the ways in which cartography was used during the Scramble for Africa to conceptualize, conquer and administer newly-won European colonies. By comparing the actions of two colonial powers, Germany and Britain, this study exposes how cartography was a constant in the colonial process. Using a three-tiered model of “gazes” (Discoverer, Despot, and Developer) maps are analyzed to show both the different purposes they were used for as well as the common appropriative power of the map. In doing so this study traces how cartography facilitated the colonial process of empire building from the beginnings of exploration to the administration of the colonies of German and British East Africa. During the period of exploration maps served to make the territory of Africa, previously unknown, legible to European audiences. Under the gaze of the Despot the map was used to legitimize the conquest of territory and add a permanence to the European colonies. Lastly, maps aided the capitalist development of the colonies as they were harnessed to make the land, and people, “useful.” Of special highlight is the ways in which maps were used in a similar manner by both private and state entities, suggesting a common understanding of the power of the map.
