More Map Research

Here are a few maps that I found in my research that I found really interesting

Reconstruction of Homer's view of the world / from Landström, B., 1964

14th century Korean star map

World without water. Dutch, 1690.

A Korean map from the 1800s, entitled “Map of Heaven and Earth

a map of Pangaea - the Earth 240 million years ago

Europe as a Queen - Munster's map of Europe in the shape of a Queen. During the late 16th Century, a few map makers created these now highly prized map images, wherein countries and continents were given human or animal forms. Among the earliest examples is this map of Europe.  A nice example in full color, from a German edition of Munster's Cosmographia, first published in 1545, but continuously expanded thereafter until the 1620s.
