The Tabula Peutingeriana Map "zoomable"

Post by badgerdog »

I've searched on the site but nowt came up so I thought I'd post it.

The Tabula Peutingeriana is the only known surviving map of the Roman road system. It was made by a monk in Colmar in the thirteenth century, It's a reproduction of the original fourth century scroll.
Besides the totality of the Empire, the map shows the Near East, India and the Ganges, sorry Lanka (Insula Taprobane), and even an indication of China.
