Ancient naval 'maps' are quite different really, not having a compass makes a difference! They are not graphical maps as such, but descriptions of landmarks (mountains, harbours and rivermouths) of a certain area, described in the order you'd see them if you sailed past it in a certain direction. Such 'periploi' (sail-around) exist for the Black Sea and the Red Sea for instance. <p>Greets<br>
