  • Rare Original Antique Ptolemy Map of Ceylon, Present Day Sri Lanka
    Located in Langweer, NL
    Original antique map titled 'Tab XII Asiae Taprobanam (..)'.

A small part of India is incorrectly shown in the northeast corner of the map and a spurious coastline labeled Gangem fills the upper right corner. The stipple engraved sea contains an oriental ship...
