EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing map, dated 1807, offers a captivating glimpse into the historical geography of Northern Africa. The map, titled "Carte de l'Afrique Septentrionale," was published during a time of significant exploration and shifting political alliances in the region. The map's detailed depiction of the coastline reveals the Mediterranean Sea's role as a vital maritime highway, connecting Europe to Africa and the Middle East. The Balearic Islands off the eastern coast of Spain are clearly marked, as are the Libyan and Tunisian coasts to the west. The interior of the map is filled with intriguing place names, many of which are now familiar, yet others, such as Numidia and Mauretania, evoke a sense of history long past. These ancient kingdoms once dominated the region, and their legacies continue to shape the cultural and historical landscape of Northern Africa. The map also highlights the complex political landscape of the time. The Libyan territories are depicted as being under the control of the Ottoman Empire, while Algeria and Tunisia are shown as independent states. The Spanish territories in the westernmost part of the map, including the Canary Islands, are also clearly marked. The map's key provides valuable information about the various features depicted, including the locations of major cities, rivers, and mountains. The inclusion of a scale and meridians further underscores the map's scientific accuracy and importance as a historical document. This map offers a fascinating window into the past, revealing the rich history and complex geography of Northern Africa during a time of exploration and change.
