Regimiento de nauegacion is a 1606 Spanish navigation manual by Andrés García de Céspedes, printed in Madrid by Juan de la Cuesta for the Spanish Council of the Indies. Its pictures are small line diagrams of compass roses with labelled Norte, Sur, Este and Oeste points and of circles divided by radiating lines, showing how bearings and sun positions were plotted, useful for designers wanting schematic cartographic or instrument motifs.
