DescriptionMap of Ancient Arabia - 1720.tif |
العربية: نُشرت هذه الخريطة لشبه الجزيرة العربية عام ١٧٢٠، وهي تظهر العربية السعيدة، والعربية البترائية. كما تشمل مناطق أخرى مثل فلسطين وبلاد ما بين النهرين وكلديا وبلاد فارس ومصر والحبشة. وهناك عدد كبير من البلدات. يحتوي إطار العنوان على تسع قطع نقود مزخرفة. تستعمل الخريطة نفس أسماء القبائل والمدن التي استخدمها بطليموس. كما يدرج بعضها أكثر من مرة، مع بعض الفوارق. إذًا، يمكن أن تشير كل من "إنديكارا" و"إشارة" و"أفانة" إلى نفس المكان: حيث كان ألكسندر الكبير ينوي بناء عاصمة على جزيرة في الخليج العربي، مما يمكنه من السيطرة على التجارة في المنطقة وتوسيع إمبراطوريته (وهو مخطط لم يتمكن من تحقيقه قبل وفاته). وتشير الأبحاث الأثرية إلى أن هذا المكان كان جزيرة فيلكة في الكويت حاليا، على الرغم من أن بعض المؤرخين يرجحون بأن المكان هو جزيرة أبو علي. تظهر الخريطة شبه جزيرة بالقرب من البحرين حاليا. وتدل جزر "أراثوس" و"ثيلاسو" على جزيرتي محرق والبحرين على التوالي والتي تقعان إلى الشمال من قطر. وُضعت الجزيرتان على هذه الخريطة على جانب الساحل الفارسي، ربما نتيجة اختلاط الأسماء مع "هرمز" و"قشم" لدى رسام الخرائط. وتُذكر قطر على الخريطة باسم "كاتارا" ، ولكن شكلها ومكانها ليس دقيق. والخريطة من وضع كريستوف فايغل، وهو نقاش وتاجر تحف فنية وناشر ألماني.
English: This map of the Arabian Peninsula, published in 1720, shows Arabia Felix, Arabia Deserta, and Arabia Petraea. Other regions included are Palestine, Mesopotamia, Chaldea, Persia, Aegyptus, and Aethiopia. A large number of towns are shown. The title cartouche includes nine vignette coins. The tribal and town names on the map are those used by Ptolemy. Some are used more than once, with variations. Thus “Indicara,” “Iacara,” “Ichara,” and “Aphana” all could indicate the same place: the spot where Alexander the Great intended to build a capital on an island in the Arabian Gulf, enabling him to control the trade of the region and extend his empire (a scheme that he was unable to accomplish before he died). Archeological research suggests that this place was Failakah Island in present-day Kuwait, although some historians place it at Abu Ali Island. The map shows a peninsula near present-day Bahrain. The islands of “Arathos” and “Thylaso” indicate Muharraq and Bahrain islands, respectively, which are actually located north of Qatar. On this map, they are placed on the Persian coast side, probably because the cartographer confused them with “Hormuz” and “Qishm.” Qatar is mentioned on the map as “Catara,” but its shape and location are not accurate. The map is by Christoph Weigel, a German engraver, art dealer, and publisher.
