An early map of Africa and Arabia oriented with north to the bottom of the page.

The map also includes much of Arabia with Mecca and Aden named. This map was printed in Giovanni Battista Ramusio's "... Navigationi Et Viaggi ..." and was published from the third edition (of 1563) onwards. Italian text to the verso.
