\\\"Korea is drawn as an island marked Corea Ins. There is no hint at all of Australia to the south of the East Indies, but there is a strong suggestion of a sea passage from Europe via a Northeast passage through the Strait of Anian between Norteastern Asia and America.\\\"
The map highly decorated with animals, sea monsters and sailing ships. A large island labeled Ceiram probably represents the western part of New Guinea.
