| ADMIRAL'S
MAP was
compiled by Waldseemuller in 1508, printed
in 1513, and claims to reflect a Columbus chart.
Note similarity to Cantino's map. A closed
Gulf and askew Mississippi delta is a remarkable
guess, or considerable knowledge of New World
geography existed prior to discoveries by Pineda
and Ponce. ("Ptolemy Geographia," Strassburg,
