Asia Minor and Provinces: A Roman Empire Map from Spruner-Menke Atlas, 1880
Located in Langweer, NL
This authentic map of the 19th century, titled "PONTUS ET BITHYNIA, ASIA, LYCIA ET PAMPHYLIA, GALATIA, CAPPADOCIA, SYRIA, CRET, CYPRVS," details the regions of Asia Minor and surrounding territories during the Roman Empire.
The map is interesting for a number of reasons:
1. **Comprehensive Detail**: It covers a wide range of regions that played significant roles in ancient history, from the cultural crossroads of Asia Minor to the strategic island of Cyprus.
2. **Geographical Information**: It includes detailed topographical features such as mountain ranges, river systems, and coastlines, illustrating the complex geography that influenced ancient political and military strategies.
3. **Historical Context**: The map reflects the Roman administrative organization of these provinces, which were critical for trade, military campaigns, and cultural exchange within the empire.
4. **Inset Maps**: The presence of inset maps for Lycia, Ionia, and Asia Minor provides focused details on regions that had substantial historical significance due to their cultural heritage and geopolitical importance.
5. **Latin Labels**: The use of Latin in the map’s labels and descriptions adds to the historical authenticity and would have served as a scholarly reference for 19th-century academics.
6. **Ancient Civilizations**: This area was the cradle of numerous ancient civilizations and the map likely includes cities of ancient Greek...

This beautifully detailed copperplate engraving features original hand colouring and displays the political divisions of early 19th-century Germany, including Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony, and Württemberg, along with neighboring regions such as Austria, Switzerland, Bohemia, and parts of Poland and France. Major cities like Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, and Frankfurt are clearly marked, as well as rivers, mountain ranges, and regional borders. Engraved by H. Cooper.

Newfoundland and St. Pierre & Miquelon: Early 19th Century French Map
Located in Langweer, NL
The map is titled "Île et Banc de Terre-Neuve avec les Îles St. Pierre et Miquelon", depicting Newfoundland and the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon. It is from the Petit Atlas National series.
Features:
- The map is divided into two sections:
1. The left side shows Newfoundland (Terre-Neuve) and its surrounding waters, including important locations such as the Île du Cap Breton and Grand Bank fishing areas.
2. The right side focuses on St. Pierre and Miquelon, a French overseas territory near Newfoundland.
- Hand-colored outlines mark the territories, with color distinctions for the different islands.
- Administrative divisions and key geographic features, such as capes, bays, and towns, are labeled on the map.
Here the text translated:
Here is the translation of the text from French to English:
**NOTICE.**
The islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon, the only remaining French possession in this part of America since the loss of Canada, are located a few miles from the southern coast of Newfoundland, which belongs to the English. Their relatively fertile soil is broken up by hills that give rise to small streams.
**Grande Miquelon**, the northernmost of the two islands, has a circumference of about 9 to 10 leagues. It offers a convenient port for fishing boats.
**Petite Miquelon**, to the south of Grande Miquelon, has a circumference of about 6 leagues. It is well-watered and well-wooded.
**Saint Pierre**, to the south-southwest of the two other islands, presents a somewhat similar appearance but is devoid of trees. Although it is the smallest of the three islands, it is the most important due to the size of its harbor, which can accommodate 30 to 40 ships of various sizes, and because of its favorable coastline for the preparation, preservation, and export of cod. On its eastern coast, at the bottom of a beautiful bay, lies the town of Saint Pierre, the only notable settlement on the three islands. It is the residence of a naval officer who, under the title of Commander, governs the colony.
The permanent population is about 2,000 souls, of which 800 reside in Saint Pierre. However, sailors come to the islands from the coasts of Brittany and Normandy during the cod fishing season on the Grand Banks of Newfoundland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. In 1833, it was estimated that about 14,000 sailors were employed in this fishery, and the purchase of supplies required by the colony was valued at over one million francs.
---
This translation reflects the original notice describing the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon, with details about their geography, population, and economic activities related to the fishing industry.
Historical Context:
- This map is part of a collection meant to showcase France's overseas colonies and territories, including the small but significant St. Pierre and Miquelon, which has been under French control for centuries and was a critical fishing and trading hub.
- The Petit Atlas National series was typically published in the early 19th century, and this map likely dates from the same period, around 1815–1820.
