Description:
|
This is the companion map to Glottiana Praefectvra Inferior, which it overlaps. It shows the catchment of the upper Clyde above the town of Lanark, that is, the southeast part of Lanarkshire. Even in the upper reaches of the Clyde, small rural settlements were evidently numerous, but towns such as Biggar and castles such as Crawford and Douglas are prominent. The site of Lanark is indicated by cartographic signs but the name was omitted by the engraver. The manuscript draft by Timothy Pont, which was the source of this map, was sent to Amsterdam but was returned to Scotland and is now in the National Library of Scotland. The engraving was first published in Blaeu's Atlas Novus, in 1654.
