15thc perception on swallowtail merlons?
We have Rhodes on the map already but not sure Konrad Van Grünenburg''s map has been discussed from 1487. Lovely manuscript and full of castles..and quite a lot of swallowtails (c.f. pages 38,39,40 which are Croatia),..  the one attached is of Rhodes

Here's a link to the full pdf Handschriften / Beschreibung der Reise von Konstanz nach Jerusalem - Cod. St. Peter pap. 32 You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
