| I understand that errors like this can make one doubt the whole product. The content of the map is not made up and very well researched. The fact that i chose to name the settlements like i did (didn't have to be major, but notable or strategic) does not erase its educational value. i causght myself actually defending the location of sarai-juk, and not sarai. You are completely correct in the instance of Sarai. This will have to be corrected in future editions. Instead of putting the settlements in quotes i should rather find another way of describing their lack of known name. There were trade links and settlements that were involved in international trade but that remains unnamed, simply referring to areas or islands. I wanted to depict these links as well. The objective with the map is to not start from a smaller part of the world, but to remedy the fact that the maps out there are either local and detailed, or global and general. I want to strike a balance between the two, and the only way i can do that is to publish and republish my map for constant reviews, which is why i appreciate your effort of correcting the map. This is a side passion project of mine that has been revised constantly during 2 years, there are other versions of this map out there significantly less accurate. And i plan to keep updating this project, because i think its usefulness definitely outweighs the drawbacks of small errors. Spelling errors are however a big drawback, and as you say, will make the map look less reliable. You said earlier that i missed some major trade routes, do you have any of these in mind that i can work with? I don't know the guy who put this map up here for crowdfunding. I was just told by someone that it was up here. I just like to track down wherever this map goes to see who comments on it in order for me to improve it. I give this map out for free to anyone who asks and have no commercial interest. Thank you again for your response. |
