Note:
|
The map was published in the book 'Großer Atlas der Außereuropäischen Erdtheile' by Henrich Berghaus. He was a German geographer and cartographer, trained as a surveyor, who carried on a geographical school at Potsdam. Berghaus's written works were numerous and important. This particular map depicts the South China Sea with the Strait of Malacca, the south coast of Vietnam, and the northwest coast of the Borneo Island. Several routes are given. There are several soundings scattered on the map but more specifically on the Malacca Strait given its importance in the East India trade.
