Carte De la Virginie . . .

Early regional map from Duval's Le Monde Terrestre, first published in 1659, although no copy located pre-dates 1660.

Includes an early depiction of the Chesapeake region, the mythical Lake May above Floride, Jamestown, Cape Henry, Secot, Pomeiok, an early reference to Manhattan and New Amsterdam and an inset of Bermuda.

This is the fourth state of the map. The states can be identified as follows:

  • 1659 / 1660: Title is La Virginie Par P. Duval Geogra. du Roy 1659
  • 1661: Title is changed to La Virginie Par P. Duval Geographe du Roy A. Paris. 1659
  • 1663: Date is removed
  • 1672: After Nouvel Amsterdam, the words "al-Manhate" have been added, as are N. Holland after N. Pais Bas. The words Iroquois and Melilot are also added.
  • 1687: Plate Number 9 added at bottom right corner
