Rare late variant of Sebastian Munster's iconic Ptolemaic map of the British Isles, first issued in 1540, but here repurposed to illustrate an edition of Strabo's 'Geography'. The only notable changes are the title (changed from 'Europa Tabula I' to 'Tabula Britanniae') and the printed text on the verso of the map. Two panels of text list the pre-Roman tribes inhabiting Britain and Ireland, along with major settlements. Typical of the earliest maps of Great Britain, Scotland is illustrated at a sharp 90 degree angle to the rest of England and Wales.
