English: This fascinating hand colored map depicts Asia at the end of the 2nd century. This period corresponds with the Han dynasty of China and the Parther Kingdom in Pesia. All text is in German, but the title roughly translates as “Asia at the end of the second century. Time of the Parther Kingdoms and the Han dynasty in China.” Map was originally part of the 1855 edition of Karl von Spruner’s Historical Hand Atlas.
