This map of present-day Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, and part of Brazil depicts several conjectural lakes and rivers. The mythical Lac Parime is prominently shown in a rectangular shape, with the fabled Manoa o el Dorado (City of Gold) on its western shore. The Orinoco River flows in a southern, rather than western, direction and connects to another conjectural lake, Cassipa Lacus. The map extends to include Trinidad, Tobago, and Isla de Margarita in the north and the mouth of the Amazon River in the south. A large, decorative cartouche fills the otherwise blank ocean.
