The Africa map of the Atlas sive Cosmographicae, seemingly distorted in Africa's North and with a typical long-stretched Madagascar, was based on the Europa maps and world maps made by Gerhard Mercator. It was however created by Rumold Mercator after Gerardus Mercator's death, in order to place it in his Atlas to be published - which is the reason that Gerardus is often credited with this map design.
