An interesting and uncommon map of the 'Old World' showing the continents of Europe, Asia, and Africa divided among Noah's sons. The continental outlines are shown according to 18th century knowledge with interiors reflecting Ptolemaic models. The map includes a key in a drape-style cartouche and the title cartouche incorporates a large landscape showing the migrations setting out from the Tower of Babel and a large tree representing Noah's descendants. Engraved by Jan van Jagen and published in a Statenbijbel by Nicolaas Goetzee.
