Ortelius & Caesar’s Map of Gaul Mapmaker(s)_John Tallis and in a straight lineThis map of Ancient Gaul was engraved on the basis of Caesars commentaries on the Gallic Wars, his first hand account of the campaign. The text on the verso explores ancient source material relating the the druids. Our example was published by Balthasar Moretus at the Plantin Press, in the final edition of the Parergon. Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum is generally considered the first modern atlas of the world, originally published in 1570.
