Enjoy this map of the Nile region within Egypt from 1745 by Jean Covens & Corneille Mortier.

The map shows the delineation of the Nile River from just south of Aswan to the Mediterranean. Loads of information is depicted including the locations of cities and towns (marked in red), smaller villages, ancient towns, pyramids, ruins, monasteries, temples, and sanctuaries. Five inserts show the Nile delta according to Herodotus, Strabo, Diodorus, Pliny and Ptolemy. Just below, is an extensive panel of text regarding the geography of Egypt and an index key.
