Show moreThis hand-colored engraved map was first published in "Atlas Manuale A New Set of Maps of All Parts of the Earth" during the early part of the 18th century. Herman Moll was one of the foremost map publishers in England at this time. This highly detailed yet small map covers Arabian Peninsula eastward to the Persian Gulf and northward to Iraq and Desert of Syria, and the Red Sea region including part of Africa. It is a clear and attractive cartographic document that shows physical features, settlements, caravan trails, and tribal affiliation. by H. Moll, geographer. Relief shown pictorially. Main Heritage Compact General HC.MAP.00083 Print Map Item-ID: i11401473 BIB-ID: 1822137 Herman Moll was born in 1654 of German descent. He first came to London to work as an engraver for several publishers, and in the late 1670s set up his own business publishing atlases as well as maps of all parts of the world. His earliest known cartographic work is a series of small maps for the geography book of Sir Jonas Moore, published in 1683. Over the next fifty years he produced numerous works on classical, British and foreign geography, illustrated with maps of varying scales and detail yet in clear, distinctive style. Though his later work lacks the flamboyance of earlier productions, it is nevertheless still very pleasing to the eye. Molls best known works are the maps he produced for his folio atlas "The World Described", first published circa 1715. Perhaps Molls most famous map is the "New and Exact Map of the Dominions of the King of Great Britain on Ye Continent of North America", depicting the English colonies along the east coast. The map is more popularly called the Beaver Map after its attractive vignette scene of beavers building dams. His other works include the "Atlas Manuale" (1709), the "New and Complete Atlas" (1719), the "Atlas Minor" (1729) and "Atlas Geographus" (1711-17) in five volumes. Names of the places in English, and some are in Latin language. Show less

Show moreThis is the second map of the Arabian Peninsula ever printed, preceded only by the Bologna edition of Ptolemy in 1477. It is an Important early map of the Arabian peninsula and adjoining regions, which first appeared in the 1478 Rome edition of Ptolemys "Geography" created under the direction of Conrad Swenheym who apprenticed with Guttenberg, and published after Swenheyms death in 1477 by Arnold Buckinck. The present map in an excellent example of Cornad Swenheyms finely engraved map of Arabia based upon Ptolemy. As noted by Rodney Shirley, "The new copper plates engraved at Rome for the 1478 edition of Ptolemys "Geography" are much superior in clarity and craftsmanship to those of the Bologna edition. There is evidence that work on the Rome edition had been started in 1473 or 1474, and several of the plates may well have been engraved before those printed by Taddeo Crivelli at Bologna in 1477, many consider the Rome plates to be the finest Ptolemaic plates produced until Gerhard Mercator engraved his classical world atlas of 1578, Conrad Swehnheyms 1478 edition of Ptolemys work is also of tremendous importance as the first set of maps to employ the "punched letter" printing process. The map includes the towns of Medina "Lathrippa", and the archeological sites of Zubarah "Catara", and Al-Dur "Domana". The run of the edition is not known, but it is considered to be scarce, and is therefore rare and important. Until the 1477 edition was definitively dated, the 1478 edition was believed to be the first ever printed atlas. Main Heritage Compact General HC.MAP.00190 Print Map Item-ID: i11401692 BIB-ID: 1845437 Claudius Ptolemaeus (circa 100circa 170) was an influential mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, geographer and also a poet. He was a Greek-Roman citizen and lived in Alexandria, Egypt. Ptolemy was famous for a number of discoveries, out of which the most famous was a theory which expounded that the earth was the center of the universe. The term "geocentric" came to being from this theory. His achievements were considered paramount during his time and quite a number of astronomers followed it religiously (especially the Greeks), until the 17th century. Later on, the works of Ptolemy evoked more controversies and arguments than any other mathematician or geographer. Even though many of his theories were proven to be incorrect, he was among the early astronomers and mathematicians who contributed a great deal to mathematics, geography and astronomy. Show less

It is accurately located geographically on the southern coast of the Gulf. However the island of Tyllo (Tylos/Bahrain) that should be across from Catara is too Far East near the straits of Hormuz, this map Boundaries are shown as spotted line, Mountains are represented as slabs and shaded. They have a double outline, perhaps an unsuccessful attempt to show the thickness of the slab. The indentures of the coastline, the lines of rivers and outlines of the mountains have a characteristic semi-circular appearance. Names are in Roman type. Nomenclature is approximately the same as the 1478 edition. The engraver is unknown, but M.A.Hind has suggested Rosseli. In the British Museum copy the map was printed in two halves, but these have been joined and the map refolded.
