This page is not a map. In the encyclopedia "Britannica" 1771 edition is a description of the then state "Great Tartary". The structure of this state is shown on this page. I was able to translate a few words of one group: "tribe", "desire", "maybe", "negotiate, conclude a contract", "country". Based on the meaning of the words, we can assume that the sentence may have the following meaning. "A country may be formed as a result of the desire of the tribes to conclude a Treaty." I was able to translate a few more groups of words. Their meaning corresponds to the above.
How would imagery outlining the structure of the state of Great Tartary not be a map?
How is the edition of the encyclopedia relevant? Why wouldnt you just quote the relevant information if is it so particular to this edition? Or at least link to it?
How were you able to translate these words, what are their corresponding locations on the page?
We cannot assume anything. More info is required to make a determination on the veracity of your claims.
At this point i find them highly doubtful.
