Rudimentorum Cosmographicorum Ioan. Honteri Coronensis libri III. cum tabellis Geographicis elegantissimis : De variarum rerum nomenclaturis per classes, liber I
Rudimentorum Cosmographicorum is a 1558 Latin cosmography textbook by the Transylvanian Saxon humanist Johannes Honterus, printed in Zurich by Froschauer for European scholars and students. Its pictures are woodcut maps of the ancient world, with dense place-name lettering, stylised mountain ranges, rivers and small town vignettes, useful to a designer for antique cartographic ornament and lettering.
