Summary

[edit]
Description
العربية: أحد أهم الخرائط الباقية من أوائل عصر الكشوف الجغرافية، خريطة العالم لكانتينو نسبةً إلى الوكيل الدبلوماسي الإيطالي ألبيرتو كانتينو في لشبونة الذي حصل على الخريطة عام 1502 من أجل دوق فيرارا. وقد نُسخت سراً دون تفويض. تشمل على كم كبير من المعلومات الجغرافية الجديدة مستندة على أربع رحلات بحرية: كولومبوس إلى الكاريبي، وبيدرو ألفاريز كابرال إلى البرازيل وفاسكو دي غاما تبعه رحلة كابرال إلى شرق أفريقيا والهند، ورحلة الأخوان كورت-ريل إلى جرينلاند ونيوفنلند. كانت جميع هذه الرحلات قد أبحرت تحت العلم البرتغالي باستثناء رحلة كولومبس.
English: The most important manuscript map surviving from the early Age of Discovery, the Cantino World Map is named for Alberto Cantino, an Italian diplomatic agent in Lisbon who obtained it in 1502 for the Duke of Ferrara. It was covertly copied without authorization. It incorporates extensive new geographical information based on four series of voyages: Columbus to the Caribbean, Pedro Álvarez Cabral to Brazil, Vasco de Gama followed by Cabral to eastern Africa and India, and the brothers Corte-Real to Greenland and Newfoundland. Except for Columbus, all had sailed under the Portuguese flag.
