On the other hand, from the outset I've thought the map is earlier and separate and was possibly the place where the project began. (I originally thought the map was mid to late 1300s).

Have you seen my map design?

I need to see it in hi-res Mark, but I like what you've done. What was the first feature on the map you identified?

You should be able to download it in high resolution from the link I have given you. If you still have problems let me know. It is 65 MB. When you view it you only get a low resolution preview. It is too large to attach to these posts.

I actually took Nick Pelling's identification of the top right Rosette as representing the city of Milan a long with his identification of the Certosa di Pavia and San Gottardo. I then developed my analysis of the rest of the page from there. Nick Pelling didn't make any identifications for the rest of the page except he associated the central rosette with St. Marks in Venice, an identification I don't agree with.
