Although this map was first printed in 1650 it includes only the discoveries
to 1628. The map covers the area from the Cape of Good Hope to Japan and
includes the whole of the Malay archipelago. It shows the discoveries of
Carstensz, 1623 in the Pera on the west coast of Cape York, and of the
Vianen five years later.
