Maps

Here you find a selection of historical maps displaying the political situation of Europe during antiquity and late antiquity. As the authors of these old prints are already dead since more than seventy years, their work is in public domain now and thus can freely be used. At this point I’ve to thank Nick Wedd who has made the effort of scanning the maps.

The print versions are variants of the maps which I have magnified from 300 to 600 dpi (i. e. interpolated) and converted to black and white (1 bit). In order to print these maps just save the .png-files, open them using a graphics programme (such as Gimp) and print them in original size.
