Summary

[edit]
Description

Macedonia, Thracia, Illyria, Moesia, Dacia,(Map X),"Comment on Map from author; Map X., & c. - Although most portions of this map are well represented, still we have a deficiency in the classical portion, as it has not been yet sufficiently examined by those who are capable of deciding and systematizing the comparative geography."

  • This map includes even 2nd century AD (i.e. Adrianopolis) cities and perhaps even later ones.
  • This map is a Post-Roman conquest map, the atlas was called "classical" and included many types of maps.
  • Locations of many cities, tribes or other features are according to 1849 scholarship and not up to date. For example, many cities shown have not been identified yet and Findlay made arbirtrary conclusions. A great omission is that Lake Prespas are missing.
