Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This map is from Rerum et urbis Amstelodamensium historia by Johannes Isaacus Pontanus. It shows Africa, the Middle East, India, China and Southeast Asia. It is engraved by Jodocus Hondius and is a reduction of Claesz's Descriptio hydrographice of 1598. De Bry in his folio copy of Claesz's map dispenses with the vignettes of native people, but they are retained by Hondius.
