Pub Note: Important later hand coloured early sea chart of the Indian Ocean, first published in 1650 by Jansson in Amsterdam.
The chart extends from Australia to Cape Horn and north to Japan, the island Korea and the Himalayas.
The map provides a fine depiction of the pre-Tasman Voyages to Australia, noting the discoveries of a number of early Dutch explorers. Australia is called Terra Del Zur. In later editions of this map, the Tasman discoveries and Van Dieman's Land are added. Korea is referred to as Ins. Corai.
