Let’s take a look at the first map of the entire, navigable African continent, meaning it’s not connected to a large southern land mass, commonly known as Terra Australis. It’s of course not the first map to show any part of Africa and there were some earlier maps to show the navigable continent but this is the first dedicated just to the continent since Bartolomeu Dias rounded it’s southern tip in 1488.

@@DanielJohnson-ek4xj yeah I had a misunderstanding and jumped the gun and posted before the sponsor gave the green light.

Wow very interesting, i love the variation of maps that came from this, and that helped form it as well. Love the lore of the lands, mythical lakes, mountains, and monsters.

Agree, this video has it all! Love your content, thank you so much!

I love your channel's name because I'm obsessed with geography. I'm not as smart as you, haha but I find this subject fascinating.

@ibnewton8951 Год назад

I’m the same. In fact I’d like to be a geography teacher or professor. It’s a totally fascinating subject.

@edyann Год назад

@@ibnewton8951 Oh, well I wish you all the luck in the world! I hope you will continue your studies in this subject because I just love it. I'm currently obsessed with the geography of the state of Alaska. How one can go to the westernmost point of it and on a clear, summer day actually be able to see Russia- just amazing!

@GeographyGeek Год назад

I appreciate it! I'm not that smart. I just read about maps, geography, and history a lot lol

As an African I can confidently state that there are no cyclopes on our territory...

Rivers change over time..... The rivers and lakes on this map are probably no different.

This map supposedly published in 1554 clearly shows the source of the Nile as the great lakes and highlands of Ethiopia. Yet 19th century explorers like Davd Livingstone and Henry Morton Stanley were tasked to 'discover' the source of the Nile?😅

Britain and America knew Jerusalem was in Africa so why would they place the European Jews in Palestine? What map shows Jerusalem where it is now?

@nahfeastsmith5241 6 месяцев назад

Of course they knew.This is why they’ve tried so hard to hide it

@SPEEDOFLIGHTful 28 дней назад

They knew it was. There are tons of maps where Jerusalem is places in Africa. These maps were bought by European jewish families then buried so it does bit resurface. I. Genesis It states that Abraham took everything he had with him and Lot and was told to go towards the direction of UP SOUTH from Egypt. Abraham was in Lower Egypt. Therefore 1. South and North have been flipped. 2. He was told to go more Deeply into the continent NOT out into the middle east.

@SPEEDOFLIGHTful 20 дней назад

@@kkrotich yes it is. The walls of Jerusalema actually stretched past the boarder of Namibia into South Africa and Botswana. The wall was so big it could have even gone all the way to Zimbabwe (the great ruins of Zimbabwe)

@MissJB1 9 месяцев назад

Yes because there was no Middle East or North Africa, matter of fact the original Continent was not even call Africa. It didn't become Africa until Europeans start coming over there.
