Legend

[1: brown shades] Contour of the lands and extent of the Asian continent towards the east according to Columbus. This geograpic notion is based notably on the works of Martin Behaim, german cosmographer and author of a mappa mundi dated 1492.

[2: black line] First known cartographic representation of the new lands discovered in the west from the map traced by Juan de la Cosa, captain and cartographer, in 1500.
