@pandaling The image is from Erwin Raisz's General Cartography. It's his interpretation of the Beatus map [en.wikipedia.org]:

"Completely dominated by Christian supernaturalism, the medieval map maker made no serious attempt to show the world as it actually is. Instead, he followed an ideal pattern in his own mind, concentrating on artistic and symbolical expression. For the geographic content of his map he relied almost exclusively on the circular world map, the Orbis Terrarum of the Romans. Even this, however, had already undergone modifications, which had diminished its geographical accuracy... In the eighth century a Spanish monk named Beatus prepared an interesting version of the old Roman map...Note the enormous Holy Land and the Paradise with its four rivers. The outlines of the lands were simplified for more regular and decorative aspect."

wtf is with the map up there? did he just decide fuck it or did he start drawing too big and realized he only had a tiny peace of paper?
