Today, I entranced the students with the Ebstorf map of the world. The discussion was nice and animated.

Next week, more history of cartography! Yay!

Nice Books:

New Book!: Piero Falchetta: Fra Mauro's World Map, Brepols Publishers, Turnhout 2006 (Brepols rocks!)

Vogel, Klaus Aselm: Sphaera terrae - das mittelalterliche Bild der Erde Read more... )

history, meme, medieval, cartography

It told me the next close result was "mentol" like you, but this is a bit more fitting. ;)
