mentary, and Brahmaputra is, as always, missing. Himalaya is called Monte Cau-
caso; at its southern side is Nupal with Tavernier's spelling, and in its western part
Raia Tibbon north of Kakemire or Kachemire, just as it is on Sanson's map (Pl.
XXIX). We recognise many names directly taken from Goës for instance Gilalabath
(Goës: Gialalabath, Brucker: Jelalabad near Kabul), Ciaciunor (Goes: Ciarciunàr, Bru-
ker: Tchar-tchounar; or better Chahr-chinar, the four plane-trees), Serpanil (Goës:
Serpanil, Brucker: Sar-i-Pamir), Sarcil (Goës: Sarcil; Brucker: Sirikoul; or perhaps
better Ser-i-kol), Sacritma M., a very steep mountain which could be passed only by
the very strongest horses,¹ Iaconich (Goës: Iaconich, Brucker: Yakarik; better Yaka-
arik), M. Consangui (as above), Gueia (Goës: Cucia, Brucker: Koutcha), and Cialis,
which has been on the maps since many years (Pl. XXVI and XXVIII etc.).²

With these stations of Goës, Cantelli has done his best to bring Marco Polo's
old itinerary into harmony; there are Kasgar or Casear, Peim, Chotan, and, a second
time, Cottan, Ciartian, after which follows the great desert of Lop, also called Bel-
gian, Kalmuck, Samo, and Karacathay.

In the middle of Marco Polo's stations appears the lake Beruan with the two
cities Beruan and Vga, certainly corresponding to Edrisi's lake Berwan and cities
Berwan and Oudj. Taskent is marked on this lake as well as on a tributary to
Sir-darya.

The greatest interest attached to Cantelli's map is to us the fact that Tobat,
Thibet, or Thebet occupies such a prominent space, and that it is not at all badly
placed, surrounded as it is by Gran Mogol, Regno di Tangvt, China, and the great
deserts. Its northern half is called Regno di Bovtan with the capital of the same
name. Its southern half is occupied by Regno d'Assen (Assam), Lago Chimai, and
Regno di Barantola, with the capital Lassa. Between both is Redoch, Andrade's
Radoc, our Rudok.

Finally we get a new link in the history of Koko-nor, which he calls Koko-
nor o Mar grande, and regards as the source of Hoang o fiume Giallo, the Yellow
River. Here again it is old Father John Grueber who leaves his traces on a map.
On Visscher's map we found the southern part of his route, from Lassa to Agra;
on Cantelli's we have the northern, from Peking to Lassa. Kircher who has the
whole route from Peking to Agra, refers in his text only to a shorter version of the
