[Image: The Mediterranean Sea in gray-green running from the top to the bottom of the page, with the East-West axis turned vertical. Four brown islands are shown in the Mediterranean toward the bottom of the page. Three rivers extend from the Mediterranean, each leading to a walled city ranged vertically along the right side of the page. The uppermost city is only gray-blue walls, the middle city shows a large building in the same gray-blue and tower surrounded by walls, while the lower city shows a large domed building, perhaps a mosque, surrounded by gray-blue walls. The uppermost city is shown on an island surrounded by a river. The Red Sea is depicted in the upper right, separate from the Mediterranean, but connected by one of the rivers.]
