Homann based this map of the Holy Land on the cartography of Guillaume Sanson. It presents the region divided among the twelve tribes of Israel and covers from Sidon to Sirbonis L in the Egyptian desert. The Kishon River is shown as connecting the Mediterranean Sea with the Sea of Galilea. The dramatic title cartouche features Moses receiving the Ten Commandments and inset in the opposite corner is a map showing the Exodus and Wandering surrounded by a finely engraved scene including Moses, Aaron, and the two spies of Moses bearing a huge bunch of grapes.
