Transcription problem - f68v3 and Rosettes foldout
#30
Just to note that the T-O maps of the time were not uniform and sometimes had continents swapped. I believe we discussed that on the forum.

For another note, in the view of some hints that the author heavily relied upon mnemonics (a T-O diagram being essentially one of those), the inscriptions in the sectors would likely be NOT the continents names, but rather some relevant information about the continents (or related thereto). What the particular continent is would be clear from the T-O map itself.
