The map is one of the oldest known on which the Line of Demarcation is represented as the prime meridian. For African and East Indian discov- 29 eries it is one of great value as well as one of importance for its representation of discoveries in the New World. Descriptive legends are numerous. The map is highly ornamented with ships, tents of barbarian kings, flags, mountains, in the draughting of which skill of a high order is indicated. 29. POETUGUESB MAP OF SOUTH AFEICA AND THE FAE EAST, abo...ut 1513. This Portuguese map, neither signed nor dated, has been thought to have been constructed as early as 1513. It includes the coast region of the Old World from the Gulf of Guinea on the west of Africa to southeastern Asia, together with the Moluccas or a portion of the East Indian Islands. For the latter representation it is a map of striking importance. A very significant feature is the apparent indication of a coast line on the right which has been taken to be a representation of the west coast of North America.
