"Partie Meridionale de la Louisiane, avec la Floride, la Caroline et la Virginie", D'Anville/Santini

This is an interesting Italian version of D'Anville's map of the Southeast. It is most notable for the incorrect boundaries showing a huge Louisiana extending eastward to include present-day Kentucky, Mississippi, and Alabama. The boundary between the Carolinas and Florida is here shown at the Ogechee R. (instead of the Alatamaha ou George R.), and Georgia is not delineated but is named (Georgie). In the left border of the map is the note of Presidio Espagnol de la Prov. de Tecas in modern-day Texas. There is good detail of towns and cities, Indian villages and tribes, rivers, portages, forts, harbors, and early place names.
