Cartobibliographic notes:
Ortelius was the creator of the first true atlas (defined as a collection of uniform map sheets and sustaining text bound to form a book for which copper printing plates were specifically engraved). Frequently revised, this atlas was the last one to be printed during Ortelius's lifetime.Ortelius' map of Florida is considered to be the first printed map of Florida and was based on original closely-guarded Spanish sources, information gathered by the de Soto expedition and drawn by Geronimo de Chaves. The cartographer of the Peru map is unknown, possibly Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, a philologist.
