[edit] Turkish map
hello, i was wondering if any1 had any info on that turkish map showing the earth from space?
That is the 'Piri Reis' map, there are many references on the internet, including Wikipedia
Yes, i do. there is a picture in the book itself and if you ask me it is pretty realistic and i could infact belve it if it wasn't for this nagging thing called logic which keeps distracting me.
- Logic is just fine ;-) Check Steven Dutch (on cartographical questions) or Walter Hain (on the history of non-scientific "research"; in German) on the subject. The map is extraordinary - but entirely terrestrial, and entirely 16th century. Jonas 07:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
