| Description |
English: Extract of Guillaume de L’Isle’s (1707) map with southern borders of “Royaume de Tigre” that come close to Chelga (the current Aykel), Gondar and Enfraz. “Olcait” (Welkait) explicitly included with Tigre. The Tekeze River does not constitute a border. We find this extent of Tigray on maps throughout the 18th century (de L'Isle 1707, Bowen 1747, de Vaugondy 1749, Bonne 1782, Pitteri 1784, Dunn 1794, Cassini 1798, Cary 1804). The map displays boundaries of political control, which may locally be different from lines of language transition. Map credit: de L'Isle (1707), World Digital Library. This map extract is conformably oriented with north up and approx. 450 km wide. Published in: Nyssen, J., Biadgilgn Demissie, 2023. Administrative and ethno-linguistic boundaries of Western Tigray (Ethiopia) since 1683. Journal of Maps, 19 (1): 2257249. DOI: 10.1080/17445647.2023.2257249. |
