"FLORIDA" OX CANTINO MAP 105 



boldt/2 de la Sagra,^^ Jomard,^^ and from a photo- 

 graph (twice the size of the original) ^^ taken directly 

 from the original at Madrid in 1890 (Fig. 11). The 

 comparative list, as given by Harrisse, is as follows i^^ 



12 Alexander von Humboldt: Examen critique de I'histoire de la geo- 

 graphie du nouveau continent et des progres de I'astronomie nautique 

 aux quinzieme et seizieme siecles, 5 vols., Paris, 1836-39; reference in 

 Vol. 5, PI. 33 (American section of map on half the scale of the original) 

 and PI. 34 (Caribbean section on original scale). 



13 Ramon de la Sagra: Historia fisica, politica y natural de la isla de 

 Cuba, Part I: Historia fisica y politica, 2 vols., Paris, 1842, PI. i at end 

 of Vol. 2. 



" Jomard, op. cit., PL XVI, i, 2, 3. 



15 Harrisse, op. cit., PI. 7, facing p. 91. The official facsimile of the 

 map in the original colors, edited by Canovas Vallejo and Traynor, 

 accompanies Antonio Vascano: Ensayo biografico del celebre navegante 

 y consumado cosmografo Juan de la Cosa y descripcion e historia de su 

 famosa carta geografica, Madrid, 1892, text in Spanish, French, and 

 English. The reproductions by von Humboldt, de la Sagra, and Jomard 

 cited in the preceding footnotes are in black and white. That by 

 Jomard is of the whole map on the original scale (there is a reduced 

 reproduction of the whole map in A. E. Nordenskiold, Periplus, Pls- 

 43-44). Those by von Humboldt and de la Sagra are of the American 

 sections only. 



16 Reference to the cited reproductions themselves of the La Cosa map 

 show a number of minor discrepancies between Harrisse's transcription 

 of the names and the names as they appear on the reproductions. Thus, 

 on the Humboldt reproduction "Sipica" reads "Sipione" and, like 

 (C° de S.) Miguel refers to Espanola, not to Cuba. "Entubi" refers to 

 Jamaica. "Matata" reads "Macata." The following names, which 

 have equivalents in the De la Sagra or Jomard lists, appear in Hum- 

 boldt's full-size reproduction but are omitted by Harrisse: Bienbaso, 

 Fumos, C°. Negro, C°. de Cuba, Rio de la Vega. On the De la Sagra 

 reproduction "sexto" follows "bien baja" and "junez" follows "P. del 

 Principe," to use the order of Harrisse's list. On the Jomard repro- 

 duction, on which the lettering is not always easy to decipher, Harrisse's 

 "fuma" reads "luna" and "fumos" follows "cuba" in the order of 

 Harrisse's list.
