Website: Bodleian Libraries Digital Collections

Among the Bodleian Library's digitized holdings are a number of historical maps from the far corners of the world as known in earlier centuries. Notable ones include:

• The Selden Map of China (c. 1659), a conserved image of MS Selden supra 105.
• The Gough Map (date undetermined), based on Gough Gen. Top 16, one of the earliest maps to identify Britain, can be evaluated from the linguistic properties of place names.
