dc.description.abstractColoured map. Line scale given. A Copy of this map, with J. Senex's name as well as Price’s, also dated 1711, is described by R.V. Tooley in his "Collectors' guide to maps of Africa," 1969, p.108. There are differences e.g. title cartouche in this map includes a figure of Neptune (?) with a cornucopia, & a man astride a crocodile; in the top right corner instead of a dedication, are 2 scenes depicting cannibalism. In the top left corner is an advertisement for telescopes etc & bottom right, a collection of scientific instruments are depicted above the words: Made & Sold by G. Willdey in Ludgate Street.
