Visscher does not believe in Kircher's identification of Grueber's Langur with
Belor Mons, and prefers to leave the mountains between Lassa and Necbal nameless,
and to remove Belor Mons far to the north. What is curious is that Kircher him-
self does not seem to believe in it. In the text he concludes that Marco Polo calls
that country Belor, »in which, a short time ago, Thebeth was discovered«.¹ Further
he says that Marco Polo's description of Belor does not in the least prevent its
identification with Langur. But on his map he follows the map of Visscher and
places Belor mons far to the north of Lassa, while even the name Langur mons is
entered on the map on the range between Lassa and Necbal.
To the N.W. of Belor Mons Visscher has a Consagni Mons Lapideus. In
Trigault's edition of Goës the ordinary jade is said to be won in a mountain at
20 days' journey from Khotan and called Cansangui-cascio, which means »stony
mountain«; it is probable that it is the same which in some geographical descriptions
of this kingdom is called with that name«. Brucker supposes that this passage
comes from Father Ricci, who herewith makes allusion to Ptolemy's Turris lapidea
mons.² But this is wrong, as Brucker shows, for Goës' Cansangui-cascio is simply
the Turki Kan-sang-i-kach, or mine of jade.³ Visscher, and with him Kircher, have
thus transplanted this relict from Ptolemy to the mountainous regions north of Lhasa.
It is under all circumstances clear that Visscher's map must be posterior to
Grueber's journey.
The western continuation of Grueber's Langur is called Montes Tibetici and
Serenager Montes, from Srinagar in Garhwal. North of the former is Tibet Major,
north of the latter Tibet Minor, which to its north has Kaskar Regnum with Iourkend
and Kachger placed on one of the Gangetic feeders, a great mistake, that had not
been committed by Sanson ten years before. Kashmir is called Iachmire which may
be a misprint; Chiaracar, Parvan, and Angher are from Goës.
Sylvain Lévy has discovered Grueber's route on Visscher's map and from it
concluded that the earliest date it can have been printed is 1663. Just along the
northern edge of the map I find a route, which François Bernier describes from na-
tive information which he obtained during his visit in Kashmir 1664. On Visscher's
map this route starts from Kashmir and runs eastwards, indicated by the following
stations: Kachaure, Gourtehe, Eskerdow, Cheker, Kachger, and Iourkend. In Bernier's
