EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient cartography, the Circular World Map by Hecataeus of Miletus. Created during the 6th-5th century BC, this horizontal page illustration is an exquisite example of early map-making. The circular format adds a unique touch to its topography, presenting a comprehensive view of the world as it was understood at that time. With no people depicted in this artwork, all attention is drawn to the intricate details and craftsmanship involved in its creation. The Western script used throughout provides valuable insights into how knowledge and information were disseminated during this era. The Circular World Map by Hecataeus of Miletus not only serves as a visual representation but also offers glimpses into ancient civilizations' perceptions and understanding of their surroundings. It stands as a testament to human curiosity and exploration even in those early times. As part of Universal Images Group's vast collection, this print allows us to appreciate the historical significance and artistic beauty encapsulated within such artifacts. While commercial use is not permitted for this image, it remains an invaluable resource for scholars, historians, or anyone with an interest in unraveling our collective past through art and cartography.
