EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing antique map depicting the western coast of Africa as it was perceived during the early Portuguese exploration era. The map, created in the year 1547, offers a fascinating glimpse into the geographical knowledge and mythology of the time. The map is richly detailed, showing various African kingdoms, coastlines, and landmarks. The Eastern and Middle Guinea regions are prominently featured, with the Mina and Gold Coasts clearly marked. Mythical beasts and fantastical creatures are interspersed among the geographical features, reflecting the European imagination of the unknown world. At the tip of the map, the headless figure of Jorge de Aguiar, a Portuguese explorer and governor of Cape Verde, is shown standing. He is depicted as if roaming the land, holding a staff and a globe, symbolizing his journeys and voyages. The map also includes various ports and trading centers, indicating the importance of the region in the global trading network of the time. The map is a testament to the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized the 16th century. It stands as a reminder of the complex interplay between fact and fiction, reality and myth, that shaped the European understanding of the African continent during this period. The map's age and intricate details make it an invaluable resource for historians, cartographers, and anyone interested in the history of exploration and the African continent.
