Six gores assembled to form one map. One of the most detailed of early maps of Africa. Coronelli stated "besides outlining the Monomotapa and Abyssinia Countries we have been the first to describe correctly the source of Nile River, correcting by many degrees the errors of the Ancients." (E.L. Stevenson, Terrestrial and Celestial Globes, vol. 2, p. 102).
