Relief is shown by hachures. The map shows towns and other settlements, oases, caravan routes, etc, Qatar is marked on the map as Catura and a hint of the Qatar peninsula can be seen on the map. Previously this region of the northern shore of Arabia was depicted as flat and it had only begun to be mapped at the very time of the publication of the original map made by Daniel Lizars. The pearl banks in the region of Qatar are also labeled. published by W. Lizars, Edinburgh. "XLVII" appears in upper left corner. From: The Edinburgh geographical and historical atlas, 1831.
