Ptolemy’s Map of the World

Wiki : Ptolemy’s Map of the World

 

Okely, Dokely, peeps. Read the wiki thing above – especially this bit – The Ptolemy world map is a map of the world known to Hellenistic society in the 2nd century. It is based on the description contained in Ptolemy’s book Geography, written c. 150.

 

And then ask yourselves one simple question.

 

How did Ptolemy know about America in the 2nd century?

 

I thought it was discovered in 1492???

 

LMFAO :o)
