About this sheet

Striking and highly detailed map of the region from Sumatra and Malaca and Southern China to the Philipines, New Guinea and Northern Australia, centered on Borneo. Includes a large inset of the Marianas. Wonderful early detail, derived from the Neptune Orientale, published by the French Hydrogrphical Department in the mid-18th century.
