Cologne, 1590:
This map played an instrumental role in defining the depiction of the Holy Land for the century that followed its popularization. The western Levant is shown from Sidon to Alexandria on roughly the same longitude. The four cities of Sodom, Gomorrah, Zeboim and Admah are shown burning in the Dead Sea.
