Description:

The author presents evidence that the origins of modern cartography is traceable to pre-Classical times, and demonstrates that most current ideas of ancient mapping are based on familiarity with atypical examples. To defend this thesis, he provides examples of the full range of Greek and Roman maps, including town and building plans, itineraries and road maps, sea itineraries and maps in art form. This work is a major contribution to the study of cartography, and also of interest to anyone interested in the study of Greco-Roman culture. Well illustrated with many drawings and photographs. 224 pages, with 16 pages of plates following page 96. cloth, dust jacket..
