Based on the remarkably accurate compilations of the Jesuit Father Martino Martini during his travels between 1643 and 1650, this map of the Guangxi province is centered roughly on Lieucheu (Liuzhou). A legend at right illustrates towns of various sizes, forts, and the locations of gold, silver, tin and iron mines. A strapwork title cartouche incorporates the scale of miles and is flanked by four men depicting the native dress of the region.
