Beschreibung
Antique map titled 'Carte du Canal de Mosambique contenant l'Isle de Madagascar aves les Côtes d'Afrique'. The main map, on the right, covers from the Cape of Good Hope north as far as Zanzibar and modern day Kenya, focusing on the gold rich kingdom of Monomotapa. Offshore Madagascar and the many Indian Ocean islands surrounding it are well mapped with considerable though inaccurate inland detail. Arrows show the direction of tradewinds and dotted lines identify some offshore reefs and other dangers. The secondary map, occupying the left hand quadrants of the chart, details the Dutch claims in the western of South Africa from the Cape of Good Hope north as far as St. Helens Bay. Notes various indigenous groups, forts, mountain ranges and rivers. Also notes the Isle Robben surrounded by depth soundings. This was a notorious prison island near of Cape Town. This map originates from a reissue of Raynal's 'Atlas de toutes les parties du Globe Terrestre (.)'. Engraved by Dien. Repair on centerfold, please study image carefully. Overall size: 40 x 26 cm.
