This antique map, titled ‘Fifae Vicecomitatvs’ and created in 1665, depicts a region in Scotland. Translated as ‘The County of Fife’, this map provides a glimpse into the United Kingdom in the early 17th century. The Kingdom was ruled by James I and VI, who had succeeded Elizabeth I in 1603. During this period, the UK was undergoing significant changes, including the rise of the British Empire, political and religious upheavals, and the beginnings of the Industrial Revolution. This map shows the central region of Fife, including the towns of Glenrothes, Methil, and Markinch, providing a glimpse into the geography and topography of the area during this time.
