While confirming several previously docu- mented trends − e.g. the adoption of erroneous Ptolemaic longitudes by 15th and 16th-century European cartographers, or the striking accuracy of Arabic-language tables of coordinates−, we have observed accurate LongMed values largely unnoticed by historians in 16th-century maps and noted that widely diverging LongMed values coexisted up to 1750, sometimes even within the works of one same author.

  • Apocryphal Voyages to the Northwest Coast of America by Henry R
    1931.] Apocryphal Voyages to Coast of America 179 APOCRYPHAL VOYAGES TO THE NORTHWEST COAST OF AMERICA BY HENRY R. WAGNER FOREWORD The opportunity afforded me to publish the present article, whieh might appropriately be called More Imaginary California Geography, allows me to make a few corrections and amplifica- tions to Some Imaginary California Geography, published in the PROCEEDINGS for April, 1926. On page 21 of that article in referring to Juan de Fuca a statement is made about the abortive expedition of 1589 or 1590 financed by Hernando de Sanctotis in which Fuca perhaps took part. There was an expedition of about 1589 or 1590 financed by Sanctotis but it was not the abortive one to which Fuca refers. This took place in late 1593 or early 1594 and was financed by Sebastian Vizcaino's company. On page 48 the date of Father Benavides' memorial is incorrectly given as 1632 instead of 1630. Since 1926 a map of Guilleaume Bleau has been unearthed which is believed by Dr. F. A. Wieder to have been made in 1648. A reproduction of it was published in Vol. 3 of the Monumenta Cartographica. If the date assigned to the map by Dr. Wieder is correct it is probably the earliest one of Briggs' type with corrections. I have lately received from Mr. G. R. G. Conway in Mexico City a photograph of a manuscript map in Tomo X of the Muñoz documents in the Real Academia de la Historia, Madrid. It is not dated nor is the Derrotero which it precedes. The place names on the northwest coast are different from those on the Briggs map and the arrangement of them is also different.

  • The Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece
    e-Perimetron , Vol. 3, No. 3, 2008 [101-119] www.e-perimetron.org | ISSN 1790-3769 George Tolias * Antiquarianism, Patriotism and Empire. Transfer of the cartography of the Travels of Anacharsis the Younger , 1788-1811 Keywords : Late Enlightenment; Antiquarian cartography of Greece; Abbé Barthélemy; Anacharsis; Barbié du Bocage ; Guillaume Delisle; Rigas Velestinlis Charta. Summary The aim of this paper is to present an instance of cultural transfer within the field of late Enlightenment antiquarian cartography of Greece, examining a series of maps printed in French and Greek, in Paris and Vienna, between 1788 and 1811 and related to Abbé Barthé- lemy’s Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece . The case-study allows analysing the al- terations of the content of the work and the changes of its symbolic functions, alterations due first to the transferral of medium (from a textual description to a cartographic representation) and next, to the successive transfers of the work in diverse cultural environments. The trans- fer process makes it possible to investigate some aspects of the interplay of classical studies, antiquarian erudition and politics as a form of interaction between the French and the Greek culture of the period. ‘The eye of History’ The Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece , by Abbé Jean-Jacques Barthélemy (1716- 1795) 1, was published on the eve of the French Revolution (1788) and had a manifest effect on its public. “In those days”, the Perpetual Secretary of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres, Bon-Joseph Dacier (1742-1833) was to recall in 1826, “an unexpected sight came to impress and surprise our spirit.

    Ապագա Հանդես (75) 1 Apaga Periodical(75) Armenia in the ancient geographical sources Ed. Baghdasarian Relatively a lot of findings were discovered during excavations in Babylonia and other countries of Mesopotamia, where clay tiles or tablets served as a material for writing, and acquired incomparable durability after backing. The oldest finds, dating back to 2400-2200 BC, with a schematic picture of Mesopotamia represent the river, flowing along the valley, between two mountain countries; before emptying into the sea, the river forms a delta, the situation of the countries is indicated by means of circles. Among engineering maps saved, there is a piece plate with plan Nippura city in Mesopotamia, which represents the walls and gates of the city, the most important buildings, canals and other facilities. There are also isolated images, reproducing speculative presentation of ancient people about structure and boundaries of the world. Among them there is a Babylonian tablet of 6th century BC, accompanied by the text. It depicts the Earth as a flat circle, washed by Ocean, named “Bitter River”. Mountains, which descend to the river Euphrates, are situated in the north. Gulf (Persian) extends deep into the land. Babylon is placed in the center of the Earth. Assyria is represented to the north-east of Babylon, in the north adjoining with the country Urartu (Armenia). In addition to Babylon several other cities are also indicated on the map by oval mark. Behind the Ocean lie seven islands, symbolizing the unknown world. The concept of the world in the form of disk, surrounded by ocean, with the public or religious center of the country, was widespread and even appeared on maps of the early Middle Ages1.

  • Adriaan Reland Mapping Persia and Japan, 1705–1715
    chapter 8 ‘Geleerdster der Landbeschryveren’? Adriaan Reland Mapping Persia and Japan, 1705–1715 Tobias Winnerling In 1764 the Amsterdam learned journal Maandelyke uittreksels, of Boekzaal der geleerde waerelt called Adriaan Reland ‘den geleerdsten der Landbeschryveren’, ‘the most learned of land-describers’.1 Reland had won such praise with his short treatise on the location of the earthly paradise.2 Yet contemporaries might have been tempted to extend this judgement to another strand of his geographical-historical studies too, to cartography proper. For cartography was indeed one of the many facets of Reland’s scholarly pursuits. He published standalone maps as well as geographically informed works which relied on maps as a central part of their argument. His last major work, the two-volume Palaestina ex monumentis veteribus illustrata of 1714,3 constantly mapped the features of ancient Palestine discussed in the text to thematic maps dispersed throughout the book. Of all of Reland’s works this would be the one best suited to the heading of ‘land-description’, as it clearly illustrates his method of com- bining maps with further research on the topic on the one hand and of relying on contemporary indigenous sources in drafting these maps on the other. In the case of the Holy Land these were Biblical sources as well as ancient authors writing on Palestine, above all Flavius Josephus. Reland had projected an edi- tion of this work but was not able to carry it out before his death. The question I am going to ask in this chapter is whether this twofold approach to cartogra- phy can also be found in Reland’s standalone maps.

  • The Roots of Nationalism
    HERITAGE AND MEMORY STUDIES 1 HERITAGE AND MEMORY STUDIES Did nations and nation states exist in the early modern period? In the Jensen (ed.) field of nationalism studies, this question has created a rift between the so-called ‘modernists’, who regard the nation as a quintessentially modern political phenomenon, and the ‘traditionalists’, who believe that nations already began to take shape before the advent of modernity. While the modernist paradigm has been dominant, it has been challenged in recent years by a growing number of case studies that situate the origins of nationalism and nationhood in earlier times. Furthermore, scholars from various disciplines, including anthropology, political history and literary studies, have tried to move beyond this historiographical dichotomy by introducing new approaches. The Roots of Nationalism: National Identity Formation in Early Modern Europe, 1600-1815 challenges current international scholarly views on the formation of national identities, by offering a wide range of contributions which deal with early modern national identity formation from various European perspectives – especially in its cultural manifestations. The Roots of Nationalism Lotte Jensen is Associate Professor of Dutch Literary History at Radboud University, Nijmegen. She has published widely on Dutch historical literature, cultural history and national identity.

  • A Study on the East Sea (Donghae) in the Werstern Old Map
    A Study on the East Sea (Donghae) in the Werstern Old Map Lee Sang-tae (Office Directer, National Institute of Korean History) Mountains, rivers, and seas did not have any names in the ancient times. However, with the development of culture, people began to name these areas. The names of each mountain, river, and sea reflect a cultural heritage as well as the values of the people who lived around them. It is noted that due to the fact that Korea was a peninsula, surrounded with three sides water, the people of Korea were interested in the sea, and they named the coastal waters based on directions such as east, west, south, north and center. They called the seas the East Sea (Donghae in Korean), the West Sea (Seohae in Korean), and the South Sea (Namhae in Korean). The name "East Sea" first appeared during the reign of King Dongmyeong in the "History of the Koguryo Kingdom" in the History of the Three Kingdoms. The three Kingdoms - Silla, Koguryo, and Baekje - were established in BC 57, 37, and 18 respectively, while the East Sea was recognized since BC 59 before the establishment of the three Kingdoms. The East Sea has a long history in Korea. The name of the East Sea was changed into the Japan Sea, because of Japanese rule in Korea. Japan alterated it into the Japan Sea. To show this historical fact, I have analyzed the Western old maps. Regarding these maps, the Univ. of Southern California holds 146, the National Library of France 127, History Museum of Seoul 82, and individuals 52 respectively.
