Summary

People of Asia imaged in the map "Asia noviter delineata"
Map with carte-a-figures, with people of Asia depicted in the right and left borders, and nine city views on the upper border: Candy (Kandy), Calecvth (Calcutta), Goa, Damasco (Damascus), Jervsalem, Ormvs, Bantam, (Bamten) Aden and Macao. First published as a loose sheet in 1617, Blaeu based it upon his wall map of 1608, which in turn drew on Hondius's folio map of 1606. It was subsequently incorporated into Blaeu's atlas from 1630 to 1670.
