Show morePtolemys map of Arabia (his map of the sixth province of Asia) is regarded as the basis for future representations of the peninsula, which changed as new information reached Europe. 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.

Show moreWilliam Home Lizars (1788-1859) Lizars was a Scottish engraver and painter and the son of the engraver Daniel Lizars. This map appears identical to the one his father Daniel engraved for the "Edinburgh geographical and historical Atlas" published by John Hamilton in 1831. It is plate 47 of the atlas. 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. Borders Arabia, Arabia Petraea, Egypt, Nubia and Abyssinia. Suez canal marked by pen. Routes of Caravans to Mecca from different directions shown. Published by W.Lizers Edinburgh.
