Antique Map Made After a Roman Papyrus Travel Map, Known as Peutinger Map, 1773
About the Item
Old Dutch engraving with title: 'Romeinsche Reis Kaart van K. Peutinger'.
Rare antique map based on the original 'Peutinger' map, the map has the shape of papyrus scrolls. Originates from the first Dutch edition of an interesting travel account of Northern Africa titled 'Reizen en Aanmerkingen door en over Barbaryen en het Ooste'.
Tabula Peutingeriana (Latin for "The Peutinger Map"), also referred to as Peutinger's Tabula or Peutinger Table, is an illustrated itinerarium (ancient Roman road map) showing the layout of the cursus publicus, the road network of the Roman Empire. The original Peutinger map is a 13th-century parchment copy of a possible Roman original. It covers Europe (without the Iberian Peninsula and the British Isles), North Africa, and parts of Asia, including the Middle East, Persia, and India. According to one hypothesis, the existing map is based on a document of the 4th or 5th century that contained a copy of the world map originally prepared by Agrippa during the reign of the emperor Augustus (27 BC – AD 14). However, Emily Albu has suggested that the existing map could instead be based on an original from the Carolingian period.
Named after the 16th-century German antiquarian Konrad Peutinger, the map is now conserved at the Austrian National Library in Vienna.
