Description
This is a very interesting map of Australia displaying an odd shape to the continent. The southern portion of the continent, except for Tasmania (Van Diemen's land here) and certainly the interior were yet to be unexplored by Westerners. The map contains interesting comments about the geography and documents dates of exploration for the Australian coast, e.g.: Edel's Land. 1619; C.F. de Wits Landt Discovered in 1628 Black Inhabitants, etc. The map shows many locations along the coats, including of course Botany Bay, Port Jackson, etc. The dark representation of the sea makes this plate easily distinguishable from other maps of the era. From Arrowsmith's Large Chart of the Pacific-Ocean.
