An early-seventeenth-century map of Bermuda, entitled, Mappa Aestivarum Insularum Alias Barmudas, and created by Willem Janszoon Blaeu. The map follows the cartography and layout of John Norwood’s survey and of the later John Speed version. Blaeu’s variant of the Bermuda map stands out with a stunning title cartouche of Poseidon holding a ship and a trident. The actual map is a cadastral survey with tables of lists of lot owners on the bottom of the layout.
