Summary
[edit]DescriptionMap of Formosa, c. 1652.jpg |
Deutsch: Eine Karte von Formosa, gezeichnet von Caspar Schmalkalden nachdem er seinen Dienst bei der Niederländischen Ostindien-Kompanie quittiert hatte. Bemerkenswert ist die detaillierte Darstellung der Ostküste der Insel, die bis dahin durch die europäischen Kolonisatoren vernachlässigt worden war. Die Karte reflektiert das damalige Wissen, das durch mehrere Expeditionen der Ostindien-Kompanie an die Ostküste in den 1640er Jahren gewonnen worden war.
English: This unofficial map, made by Caspar Schmalkalden, after he left the service of the Dutch East India Company is unusual in the detail it provides for the eastern coast. During the early years of the colony, the eastern coast was largely neglected. In the 1640s, however, the company sent several expeditions to reconnoiter the east coast and investigate rumors of gold mines in the mountains. This map reflects the company's newfound knowledge about the geography of the east coast, including the long valley behind the Coastal Mountain Range (海岸山脈) and the Cavalan area.
