Weft, Jies in Longitude 7 Degr. ’z6 Min. and Chbea* 
its utmoft Boundary to the Eaft, in 10 De^^r. 47 
Min. from London, ^ 
Of the modern Geographers, Luyts feems to have 
been the beft acquainted with its Extent in general, 
giving It .3 Degr. of Longitude, and (above) 4 Degr. 
in Latitude. The Sanfons place it above 3 Degr. 
further to the South than it Ihould be, and their 
Error is greater, in relation to the Longitude. Moll 
places It a few, Minutes only too far to the North, 
but to the South he has extended it beyond the Pa- 
rallel of Tripoly^ wherein I hnd he has been foh 
lowed hy Mr. De Lljle, in his Map of Jfrka, 
lyii. But a long Chain of Mountains which run 
in the fame Parallel of Latitude with are the 
Limits of runis and TrlpoJy, 
If we take the Antients'^for our Guides, we (hall 
ftill find further Errors and Difagreements. For 
Ptolemy makes the Difference of Latitude betwixt 
C nfthci^e^ and G^pSy almoft the two Extremities 
of the Kingdom, to be only i Degr. and yo Min. 
( provided the It Copy 1 make ufe of be cor* 
The like Diftance he puts between G^jps and 
Tofeu making thereby the latter no Miles more to 
the South ; whereas I found it 18 Miles more to the 
North, Thus again he places GafJJ'a in Latitude 
29 Degr. 45* Min. and Gaps in 30 Degr. 30 Min. 
making Gaps a great W^ay to the North ; whereas 
the Courfe from Gaffa to GapSy is near 80 Miles 
South'Eaft : not to fpeak of his placing Carthagey 
and fo refpedively of other Places, too far to the 
South by near 4 Degr. 30 Min. or 270 Miles. The 
like Errors may be obferved as to his Difference of 
B b 2 Longi,
