Galletia Ravenna mappa mundi, c.650

Reconstruction of a mappa mundi from the notes of an anonymous geographer from Ravenna (Italy), c. 650 AD, also known as the "Ravennate" mappa mundi. The reconstruction was printed in Konrad Miller (1898) 'Mappaemundi: Die ältesten Weltkarten, Stuttgart: Roth'sche. Volume VI, table 1. The map is unusally gridded by a rare 24-wind compass (or, more precisely, a classical 12-wind compass strangely partitioned into "day" and "night" segments, yielding 24 rays.)
