This antique map, titled ‘Lorna cum insulis vicinis…’ and created in 1665, depicts the United Kingdom in the early 17th Century. The title translates to ‘Lorn with surrounding islands…’. The map shows a central area that includes Oban, Ellenabeich, and Dunbeg, but does not specifically name other places. The United Kingdom at this time was a patchwork of nations and territories, with England and Scotland ruled by separate monarchs and Wales largely under English control. The map offers a glimpse into the geography and topography of the region, as well as the political and cultural landscape of the time.
