This detailed map spans the coast of western South America from the Tumbes Region to the southern part of the Atacama Desert in northern Chile. It extends inland as far as western Brazil, which is largely bereft of detail. Towns and cities, rivers, lakes, tribes, and more are identified. A couple of notes warn of regions "Inhabited by Various tribes of unsubdued Indians."
