Very uncommon map that concentrates of the source of the Nile in a lake called Tzana, Dembea that Coronelli is considered to be the first to accurately depict. Extensive notations throughout. The map is graphically illustrated with large mountains, a large garland style title cartouche and scale of miles. Inset map shows the origin of the Nile on the Ptolemaic model.
