Viac o knihe
Ptolemy's map of Africa, created in the 2nd century AD, reveals the extensive geographical knowledge of the Alexandrian geographer, particularly in the northern regions of the continent. However, his understanding diminishes significantly south of the equator, highlighting the limitations of ancient cartography. This work explores the implications of Ptolemy's map on our understanding of Africa's geography during that era.
