Rudimentorum cosmographicorum Ioan. Honteri Coronensis libri III. cum tabellis geographicis elegantissimis. : De variarum rerum nomenclaturis per classes, liber I
A 1565 Latin cosmography textbook by the Transylvanian Saxon humanist Johannes Honter, printed in Zurich by Froschauer, with a series of small woodcut maps of the ancient and classical world. The pictures are dense black-line woodcut maps with coastlines, mountain ranges drawn as stacked peaks, rivers, and Latin place names set in running type, giving a designer a model for compact, legible cartographic labelling and hatched relief.
