The Wanderings of Israelites come alive through another fascinating map engraving - tracing their footsteps through lands steeped in biblical tales. Crossing continents once more brings us to Peru's Lake Titicaca where Quechua Indian families reside on Floating Grass islands called Uros; here you can witness their unique way of life amidst breathtaking natural beauty. Finally, at Waitangi Treaty Grounds in New Zealand's Bay of Islands region stands a majestic Maori Meeting House.
