This antique map, created in 1665, is titled ‘Portvgallia et Algarbia…’ which translates to ‘Portugal and Algarve’. Portugal in the early 17th century was a powerful maritime nation with a strong economy based on trade, especially with its neighbour Spain. The map shows the central location of Lisbon, Coimbra, and Setúbal, but beyond that, it provides a glimpse into the topography of the region, including the coastline and the rivers that run through it. The map also shows the bordering country of Spain, which was a significant political and economic rival of Portugal at the time. Overall, this map provides a fascinating look at Portugal’s geography and the geopolitical landscape of the early 17th century.
