Mythical Locations on Real-World Maps
Where the world ended
For thousands of years, maps didn't just record where the world ended—they mapped what people believed lay beyond. To medieval and early modern cartographers, placing a legend or a holy city on a map wasn't an act of fiction. It was simply cartography consistent with their understanding of the world, blending observed geography, spiritual faith, and centuries of folklore into a single tapestry.
