Sobre este artículo
Lugdunum, Batavorum: Samuelem Luchtmans,1748. Illustrated with folding map. Thick 8vo, full calf, upper cover detached, blindstamp and ink notation to titlepage, part 2 titlepage misbound, some staining along foredges, otherwise very good.. BMC, Vol 17, p. 172; For a similar map see the Samourka Map Collection #A9109 (cartouche is different). Mela was an early Roman geographer originally from Spain. He theorized that the world was divided into five parts, of which only two were habitable. The map is particularly odd showing an oversized Indian subcontinent and a much widened Africa. Below Africa is a very large land mass. Mela's De Situ Orbis was originally published in 1471 and saw many subsequent editions published.
