This antique map, created in 1665, is titled ‘Cantyra Chersonesus’. Translated, this means the ‘Cantyre Peninsula’, which is located in southwest Scotland. The map also includes other areas of Scotland, as well as parts of England and Wales. In the early 17th Century, the United Kingdom was undergoing significant political and social changes, with the monarchy still in power but facing challenges from religious and political factions. The country was also embroiled in several conflicts, including the English Civil War and various conflicts with neighbouring countries. The map is likely to show geographical features such as coastlines, rivers, and mountain ranges, as well as settlements and transportation routes. However, specific places are not named, except for the central locations of Campbeltown, Ardminish, and Blackwaterfoot.
