One thing I would like to add, is that the Greek word "metropolis", which means "city", is composed of "metro/meter" which means mother, and "polis" which means town.
Therefore your idea that the women standing in the containers represent cities, like in the portolan map of Catalan where there are container looking cities, suddenly makes a lot of sense. It would make a great way of encoding the information that it is in fact a map with cities.
