te faltaría poner algo sobre el mapa de peters o una comparativa más real. algo más actual. hoy en día sabemos que todos esos mapas tenian una perspectiva desde el norte y eurocentrista, que hacia africa y sudamerica mas pequeñas.

Thanks; what a great collection!

Dear, I like very much all your maps of Africa because I work
on the palaeoenvironments of North tropical Africa, particularly of Chad basin during Holocene times, and almost the last millenium where there are some “historical” data. Your serie of maps is not complete - two older are important (but other exist again !) are here missing, the Fra Mauro map, ca. 1450 AD and the Ibn Said map (13nd c AD, see D.Lange, 1980) I can send you mail/copies.
If you can read french I can send you some published papers (give me an e-mail to send /.pdf) and presently I have an important manuscrit quite ready for publication on the Sahel during the last 3 millenia, People and Climates (in collaboration with an archaeologist).
Meileures salutations, Jean Maley
what about the maps of the Muslims? e.g. Muhammad al-Idrisi:
