Ptolemy's Map of the World cA.D 150. The Ptolemy world map is a map of the known world to Hellenistic society in the 2nd century AD. It was based on the description contained in Ptolemy's book Geographia, written c150. Perhaps the most significant contributions of Ptolemy's maps are the first uses of longitudinal and latitudinal lines. Taken from 'A Book of Discovery', published by T. C. & E. C. Jack Ltd. 1912.
