Original Antique Ptolemaic Map of the Region of Thailand and Malaysia
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Tabula Asiae XI'. Based on the interpretations of Solinus and Munster, this Ptolemaic map covers the region roughly of Thailand and Malaysia. An oddly shaped (Malaysian?) peninsula lies to the east of the Ganges River, then the China Sea (Sinus Magnus) and another landmass lies to the east of that. This depiction embodies the legacy of Ptolemy's idea of a landlocked Indian Ocean.
This map originates from 'Geografia Di Clavdio Tolomeo Alessandrino, Tradotta di Greco nell'Idioma Volgare Italiano Da Girolamo Rvscelli, Et hora nuouamente ampliata Da Gioseffo Rosaccio ... Et vna Geografia vniuersale del medesimo, seperata da quella di Tolomeo ... Et vna breue Descrittione di tutta la Terra, distinta in quattro Libri (..)', Appresso gli Heredi di Melchior Sessa, 1599.
