The river of Maningaar on Madagascar

Maningaar River on Madagascar. Rivier van Mattingaar op Madagascar. Top left: No: 50.a. The plate is taken from: 'Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indiën' van François Valentyn. The plate features a key numbered 1 through 4, but there are no explanatory notes. Neither does the text feature any explanations. According to Valentyn there was a Dutch trading post on the Maningaar River. The river is probably the Manarara river on the east coast near the Bay of Antongil.
