In the middle ages maps were little used and their function, as we know it today, was scarcely understood. However, those that survive offer a vivid picture of the medieval view - both of the world and of particular areas and places. They reveal not only the extent of geographical knowledge but also the historical and theological ideas that informed the work of the mapmakers and their patrons . . .😎
