A propos de cet article

N.p..ca 1800-1810, n.p.

It also uses such early names as the "Bogue" aka Boca Tigris, and shows a good number of Chinese characters for place names, with the associated tanslated Romanization so the map can be read by foreigners as well as Chinese. translating. . * Although undated, this map appears to be made in an early time as Hong Kong while cited is not central, and of no significance and is in fact to the extreme right and barely noticeable.

This was likely done during the time of Canton trade, so it was more of a navigational guide rather than one used to point out any specific areas other than the Canton Estuary. . * Because of its clarity, and use of Chinese characters, one could also ascribe the use to navigators who employed Chinese pilots to assist in sailing though the islands into the Pearl River to Canton and Whampoa or to Macau and its passages to Canton. . *.…
