Six onion-roof towers supporting heavens

[Aga Tentakulus]

Interesting!  It seems that the cartographer had onion domes on all the buildings of the Muslim world and Asia, and conical roofs on all the European ones.  Which would be consistent with the claims that the Russians, in the 13th century or earlier, copied their onion domes from Persia and/or Asian countries and/or the Mongols.

This brings us back to Timbuktu.
As can be seen on the map from 1830, there were no round domes.
How could there be? Such structures cannot be built from clay.
The Catalan World Atlas map was drawn from a purely European perspective using information provided by the Moors.
