Summary

Description
English: A map of Meridional India (Southern India); bearing a general resemblance to Mercator’s map of 1569. Eredia has taken a typical map of the period, based on Mercator or Ortelius, and has incorporated his own surmises based on local information: the result is a cartographical nightmare. Note that the South is at the top of the map.
