Persia Strait of Hormuz ; Gulf Map In 1747ABAA

Persian Gulf History: Bellin View of Hormuz Persian Coast Fortifications and Maritime Traffic 1747

1747réf. 143611747. Bellin Jacques Nicolas. Ile d'Ormus ou de Jerun 1747 depicts Hormuz and the surrounding Persian Gulf maritime landscape more than a century after an Anglo-Persian force ended Portuguese control of the island in 1622. Published in Histoire générale des voyages the engraving identifies the Persian coast islands anchorages fortifications and channels while distinguishing Arab vessels from large-masted European sailing ships. Its concentration on ships coastal defenses and approaches to Hormuz records the strategic geography of a passage that connected Persian Gulf ports with Indian Ocean trading routes. Bellin Jacques Nicolas. Ile d'Ormus ou de Jerun. From Histoire générale des voyages 1747. Overall sheet size 13.5 x 9.5 inches; image size 7.5 x 9.75 inches. The upper portion identifies the "Cote de Perse" while inscriptions throughout the engraving include "Fortresse" "Ile de Kishom ou Quixema" "Entre des Vaisseaux" "Porte de derriere" "Parade Alkoran" "St. Lucia" and "Lardimira." Five Arab vessels occupy the foreground while additional Arab shipping appears at left and European ships with tall masts and multiple sails appear at right. The fortified settlement on Hormuz includes the fortress associated with Portuguese occupation of the island. Hormuz had been seized in 1507 by the Portuguese commander Afonso de Albuquerque and Portuguese control made the island a fortified base for regulating maritime commerce at the entrance to the Persian Gulf. The Portuguese constructed the Fort of Our Lady of the Conception there; in 1622 forces of Shah Abbas I assisted by ships of the English East India Company captured Hormuz and ended Portuguese rule on the island. Bellin's 1747 engraving therefore records a landscape shaped by earlier Portuguese fortification but returned to Persian control while its juxtaposition of Arab and European vessels documents the continuing international maritime character of the strait. Paper folded three times consistent with its original publication format. Overall very good condition. unknown books

Includes coastal views of Ras Al Hadd Sur Qalhat As Suwaiq Sohar Fujairah Khasab the Tunb Islands Abu Musa the Doha Fort Bahrain Harbour and Tarut Island amongst others. The guide was published to give accurate sailing directions to the ports towns and safe anchorages along the Arabian coast from Ras al Hadd on the eastern peninsular of Oman to Shatt al Arab in the North and back along the coast of Iran to Bandar Abbas and beyond. With much early information on the principal settlements of the United Arab Emirates Qatar Bahrain Kuwait and Oman and an interesting glossary of Arabic-English key terms. Dubai is described as well as Daira: 'Daira is a large suburb consisting of mat huts amongst which stand a number of well-built houses.' 'Dibai Dubai contains the residence of the Shaikh. There are several tall towers in Dibai; the fort is a conspicuous square building with a round tower. from which the Shaikh's flag is displayed.' Abu Dhabi is similarly described: 'This town consists for the most part of huts and extends along the coast for nearly two miles. In the town there is a small fort partially surrounded by trees with five towers close together. The coast in the vicinity of Abu Dhabi is very low and the beach is of white sand'. There are two views of Qasr Al Hosn one of which appears here with the 1948 supplement for the first time. The great pearl bank is also given attention: 'this extensive bank. fills the great bight in the southern part of the Persian Gulf.' 'Many islands both close to the coast and far offshore lie on the bank. With the exception of Dalma none has permanent inhabitants though they are frequented by the pearl boats during the summer and by fisherman from Abu Dhabi in the winter.' 'The best pilots for the coast are to be obtained at Abu Dhabi.' Much of the information of Qatar and Doha is amended by the supplement and appropriately altered by the annotations showing its quickly changing nature. Bahrain is also described and there is also note of the health of the region: 'Manama. is more liable to epidemics than the smaller ports; since 1920 however there have been no more epidemics in Bahrain than in any other of the larger Gulf ports.' Kuwait is described 'The Shaikh's palace. has a small roof which is the highest point of any building in the town.' 'The principal export is pearls; the chief imports are rice sugar tea flour piece goods matches hardware wheat and barley.' London, Hydrographic Department, Admiralty, 1942. hardcover

Includes coastal views of Ras Al Hadd Sur Qalhat As Suwaiq Sohar Fujairah Khasab the Tunb Islands Abu Musa Sirri Island Al Jazirah Al Hamra Al Shebeakah Rams Ajman Qasr Al Hosn in Abu Dhabi Sir Bani Yas the Doha Fort Bahrain Harbour and Tarut Island amongst others. The guide was published to give accurate sailing directions to the ports towns and safe anchorages along the Arabian coast from Ras al Hadd on the eastern peninsular of Oman to Shatt al Arab in the North and back along the coast of Iran to Bandar Abbas and beyond. With much early information on the principal settlements of the United Arab Emirates Qatar Bahrain Kuwait and Oman and an interesting glossary of Arabic-English key terms. By 1955 it was clear how the oil boom had changed the economy of the region. The first chapter gives an overview and includes the character of the sea and ports description of major towns and cities and their respective populations for example 18000 in Qatar the main economic imports and exports of each locale and considerable weather information. Dubai is described as well as Daira: 'Daira is a large suburb consisting of mat huts amongst which stand a number of well-built houses.' 'Dibai Dubai contains the residence of the Shaikh. There are several tall towers in Dibai; the fort is a conspicuous square building with a round tower. from which the Shaikh's flag is displayed. There is a hospital.' Abu Dhabi is similarly described: 'This town consists for the most part of huts and extends along the coast for nearly two miles. In the town there is a small fort partially surrounded by trees with five towers close together. The coast in the vicinity of Abu Dhabi is very low and the beach is of white sand'. The fort is given it's own view on one of the plates. The great pearl bank is also given attention: 'this extensive bank. fills the great bight in the southern part of the Persian Gulf.' 'Many islands both close to the coast and far offshore lie on the bank. With the exception of Dalma none has permanent inhabitants though they are frequented by the pearl boats during the summer and by fisherman from Abu Dhabi in the winter.' 'The best pilots for the coast are to be obtained at Abu Dhabi.' Much detail is also given to Qatar and Doha: 'This town situated on the southern side of the harbour is the capital of Al Qatar peninsula and had a population in 1947 of about 12000.' ' The Shaik's palace. is a large building with many colonnades and an open balustrade round its roof.' ' The chief exports are gutch fish and pearls; imports are food timber and manufactured goods.' Bahrain is also described with Manama being called the 'principal town and port' and as well as the trade being described there is also note of the health of the region: 'Manama is more liable to epidemics than the smaller ports; since 1920 however there have been no more epidemics in Bahrain than in any other of the larger Gulf ports.' It is interesting also that one of the major changes of the supplement is changing the name 'Bahrein' to 'Bahrain'. Kuwait is described as greatly altered by the oil wealth: ' Wealth derived from oil revenues is being spent on completely replanning and rebuilding the town. Government offices schools hospitals electric generating and water distillation stations private houses and blocks of flats are all being built in the most modern style'. 'Pearl fishing is now practically extinct. There are to all intents and purposes no exports. The chief imports are food of all kinds machinery motor vehicles and building materials.'
