Map has little to do with the modern "Islamic Republic of Mauretania". It actually shows only the very northern part of this state. The title refers to ancient historic understanding of the "Maghreb" It really shows, by modern geography, Morocco, Algeria, Tunesia and the westernmost part of Libya. In outlines we see southern and eastern Spain up to the Balearics. Interesting in the extreme west off the Atlantic coast the map shows "Erythia" (Erytheia) one suspected island of the Canary Island group. Erytheia was the island where, according to Greek mythology, Hercules had the task to fetch the Golden Apples, which were supposed to be held hidden in the Hesperides' garden in the most western part of the then known world. Erytheia was one of the Hesperides.

The "Roman Histories" by Polybius were among the most important writings about Hellenistic history and the upcoming importance of the Roman Empire. Xylander, an all-round intellectual scholar, translated the book from the original Greek rather than reproducing the existing Latin translation. The entire work comprised originally 40 volumes, of which most are lost. The ones preserved contain maps of the Mediteranian countries: Greece, Macedonia, Turkey, Syria, Egypt, Mauretania, Italy and a few others. Polybius used the maps of Ptolomy.

There are remnants of paste on reverse side. Map had been folded. These folds are a bit visible. General age toning. Some spotting. Small reapired tear in lower margin on centerfold.

Pharao's Island. - "Plan de l'Isle de Graie (Mer Rouge)"

Lithograph by Desmadryl 

after the drawing by Leon Emmanuel Simon Joseph de Laborde (1807-1869)

Few islands of this minute size (ca. 4 ha. = ca. 9.6 acres) have received such cartographic attention as this one. Located at the northernmost top the Gulf of Aquaba, 200 meters off the shore of Egypt's east coast of the Sinai Peninsula, and a hop, skip and a jump away from Israel's Elat and Jordan's portion of the Red Sea at  Aquaba, the island, called by the Crusaders "Ile de Graye" and Aila in the Arabic language, was basically a fortress of the Crusaders until, in 1170, Saldin conquered it, rebuilt the citadel and staffed it with a garrison of soldiers. 

Raynald of Chatillon failed, in 1182/83, at setting up a blockade  against the Moslem troops. This island lost all strategic importance in the 14th century. But in modern times the coral reefs of it have become a major attraction to diving tourists in Israel and Jordan. Because of its history and the remnants of the fort, the island is visited by many tourists. The citadel was accepted in the list of UNESCO World Heritage.

In the lower left and right corners of the map we see of the island's cistern.

De Laborde, as a young man, traveled widely in the area. One of his many publications was "Journey through Arabia Petraea, to Mount Sinai and the excavated city of Petra, the Edom of the prophecies"

Published in Paris, 1830

This map was in the atlas accompanying this publication.

Very clean. Minimal traces of age and use. A few creases in right margin.

This map was one of the "historical maps" of Abraham Ortelius. Toward the end of his life he worked more on maps showing Classical history rather than geography of the time. He combined modern geographical knowledge with the historical knowledge and nomenclature of Ptolemy's maps. This map shows northern Africa from Mostaganem in Algeria to Bengasi in Libyia. Part of Sicly and the Aeolian Islands are in the north. Malta and the Pelagie Islands are shown east of Tunesia. Mountains and seasonal rivers are shown. The names of the various tribes shown are Classical names. In the lower left corner is a decorative inset with a plan of Carthage. At the bottom are the sources used for positioning the various towns. Notice the very decotative title cartouche in the upper right with relaxed cherubs. Below the cartouche is a dedication. Verso: Text in Latin.
