This 1660 map depicts North America, specifically New Amsterdam, withno mention of English colonies or settlements. The figures in the border are from Van den Keere’s 1614 map while the island of California was drawn based on observations of an English map by Luke Foxe. The border includes illustrations of natives from Virginia, Magellanica, Brazil, Cusco, Mexico, Olinda, Havana, and Cartegena. Further embellishments include a Native American on armadillo and Neptune with mermaids and seahorses.
