Chatelain, Henri Abraham
Nouvelle Carte de l'Asie, avec des Tables Alphabetiques pour Trouver É
1705
Copperplate engraving; area coloured
Printed area: 58.4 x 46.3 cm; 22.9 x 18.2 in

Taken from Chatelain's 'Atlas Historique' (published between 1705 and 1732) this map is based on an earlier map of the region produced by Guillaume De L'Isle in 1700. The map is flanked by two tables listing political and geographical information. The central and north-easterly regions of Asia are divided into various several Tartar khanates. The representations of Siberia and North Japan are not accurate, reflecting the lack of knowledge about the region at that time.
