Palaestinae Sive Totius Terrae Promissionis Nova Descriptio Auctore Tilemanno Stella Sigenens

A nice example of Ortelius' map of the Holy Land, from the 1592 Latin edition of his Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, the first modern atlas.

The map shows all of the Holy Lands with Egypt. In the upper left is a text box describing the region. In the bottom right is a fine title cartouche with mileage scale below it. Five sailing ships and a sea monster in the ocean.

The path taken by the Israelites after their departure from Egypt can be seen, beginning with the assembly of the tribes at Ramses from 6 other locations, crossing of the Red Sea near the town of Baal Zephon (shown between the markers for year 4 and 5), headed north to Hasmona (year 26), then south to Aziongaber (year 32), then finally crossing the Jordan River just north of the Dead Sea into Palestine in year 42.
