Al-Idrisi's world map. This world map, known as the 'Tabula Rogeriana', dates from 1154, and is orientated with North at bottom. It was drawn by Muhammad Al-Idrisi (1100-1165), an Islamic and Andalusian scholar working for King Roger II of Sicily. It is considered to have been the most accurate world map for the next three centuries. Regions shown include Europe (lower right), the Mediterranean Sea (centre right), North Africa (upper right), the Arabian Peninsula (upper centre), the Black Sea and Caspian Sea (lower centre), and parts of Asia (left). This is a restoration and transliteration carried out in 1927 by the German scholar Konrad Miller (1844-1933).

The region later became the colonies and then states of New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and Connecticut. The inset (lower right) shows an early New York City (re-named New York in 1664): 'Nieuw Amsterdam op t eylant Manhattans' (New Amsterdam on the island of Manhatttan). New Amsterdam is at left of Long Island (red, centre). Published in Amsterdam in 1685, this map by Nicolaes Visscher (1649-1702) is thought to date from the early 1650s.
