Second Dutch Edition of this treatise on the geography of the Mediterranean and the Ancient World. This edition eliminates the large maps present in the first edition of 1605, but the small maps in the text, based on those in Bertius' Tabularum Geographicarum, were corrected by Jodocus Hondius. They comprise a world map, a map of Europe, twelve maps of Spain and Portugal, twenty-four of France and nineteen of Italy. The author, a Dutch jurist, was appointed to the chair of history at the University of Leyden in 1592. In addition to the present geography, he wrote many treatises on laws and history. Koeman III 1.
