EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing map print, dated 1719, offers a fascinating glimpse into the geographical knowledge of the Sahara Desert during the early modern period. Titled "Africa," the map primarily focuses on the central Sahara region, highlighting various territories and features that were known at the time. The map includes the expansive Sahara Desert, stretching from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Red Sea in the east. The desert is depicted in browns and beiges, contrasting sharply with the greens and blues representing the Nile River and its tributaries. The map also shows the northernmost reaches of the desert, where the Sahara transitions into the Mediterranean climate of Egypt. Nubia, an ancient African civilization located along the Nile River, is depicted in the eastern part of the map. The region is shown as a series of distinct territories, each with its name inscribed in Latin script. To the north of Nubia lies Egypt, represented in greater detail, with the Nile River winding through the fertile valley and the major cities of Alexandria, Cairo, and Memphis clearly marked. In the easternmost part of the map, the land of Abyssinia, or modern-day Ethiopia, is shown as a large, mountainous region. The map includes several notable features, such as the Blue Nile and the Tana River, which were essential sources of water for the ancient civilizations in the region. This map, produced in 1719, offers a valuable window into the geographical knowledge of the Sahara Desert and its surrounding regions during the early modern period. Its intricate details and accurate representation of known territories make it an essential resource for scholars and historians studying the history of Africa during this time.
