Three large rivers arise from a mountain range labeled 'Fontes Nili' source of the Nile other mountain ranges and coastal towns named in Latin or Portuguese.

The atlas was reprinted in 1520 1522 1525 1535 and 1541. This wood block was cut in 1525 for the publisher J.Gr�nninger. This being the variant of 1541 now without the banner title but title in letter type and blank verso.
