Note:
This chart belongs to the manuscript 'Portulan de la Méditerranée, des côtes de Portugal, Espagne, France, Pays-Bas, Allemagne, Angleterre, d'Afrique, Arabie, Inde, Chine, Iles de la Sonde, etc., et de l'Amérique du Nord et du Sud' that even though it was made in France it is obviously from Portuguese sources, for not only the making of the charts ressembles those from Portuguese cartographers but also most, if not the entirety, of place names is written in Portuguese especially in this Asia map. Some of the notes are also written in Portuguese, like on the land mass east to the Paracel Islands. Just as in Portuguese sea charts a lot of detail in given to coast lines with an extensive of place names but almost none on land.
