| Cyprus Insula. Candia olim Creta,
by Ortelius, Abraham. Antwerp, 1574 or
1575. Latin Text Edition. 43x36.5 cms. Two maps on one sheet, Cyprus
above and Crete below, in use in the Theatrum 1570 to 1581.
It is interesting that despite the
inclusion of the map of Cyprus by Jan van Doeticum in 1573, this map
remained in the Theatrum until 1584, when the map of Crete with the
Aegean Islands was introduced. However it is still much rarer than
the full-sheet map of Cyprus.
