Livio Sanuto · Harvard scanned-maps catalog
Open Harvard catalog record ↗What to examine
BHITB and the cited 1920 discussion refer to Tabula X. The reproduction examined in Remembering YAH visibly reads Tabula XII. Keep those sheet references distinct.
A short label transcription
IVDEORVM TERRA
Transcribed from the reproduced close-up displayed above. The Latin lettering uses V where a modern transcription may use U. The visible full-sheet heading reads AFRICAE TABVLA XII. This does not resolve the different Tabula X reference in the research trail.
Keep three records together: the sheet heading, the enlarged label and the separate source citation. The label is visible evidence; a conclusion about the identity of a modern population requires additional evidence.
Make your own source record
- Identify the creator, title, edition and date from the source itself.
- Record the exact page or map sheet. Read the surrounding passage or full geographical setting.
- Separate the wording visible in the document from the interpretation you draw from it.
- Keep unresolved readings and conflicting dates in your notes so the comparison can be revisited.
