Description
Map of the eastern part of the United States and Canada. With inset map of Hudson and Baffin bays. in the lower right corner.Venetian edition of d'Anville's map, from "Atlas Universel" printed in 1776-84.
Noteworthy topographical detail is shown, with particular focus on the Great Lakes. Lake Superior is shown attached to a convoluted river system reaching across the continent reminiscent of the Riviere Longue of Baron Lahontan's memoirs.
On the Gulf Coast the region of Tecas (Texas) is named with a nearby note about the Atac-apa tribe of Indians, who are noted as Antrophages (Cannibals) and Indiens errans.
The map was prepared by the Venetian cartographer and publisher François (Père) Santini and first published in Santini's 'Atlas Universel dresse sur les meuilleures cartes modernes 1776.'
Santini collaborated with Janvier and gives credit to him on most of his maps. The atlas is effectively an Italian copy of the Robert de Vaugondy 'Atlas Universel'.
In 1784 Santini sold the plates to M. Remondini, whose name appears on this particular example - indicating that this is the second state of the map.

[Collective suicide under Spanish rule.]
The natives of Hispaniola, who saw no end to the fearful oppression of Spanish rule, preferred death. So many, devoid of all hope, went into the woods to kill their children and hang themselves. After taking certain natural poisons, the women followed their husbands to death by means of the noose. Others threw themselves down mountains, jumped into the sea or into rivers, while some died by self-imposed starvation or even stabbed themselves to death with razor sharp stone knives:In 1631 Johann L...

De Sota meets the Inca king near Cajamarca.]
When the Spanish arrived in Cajamarca, they found only a few inhabitants. The Inca army was camped in the surrounding hills and the residence of the Inca king, Atahualpa, was a few miles away, so de Soto went ahead to meet him and to announce the arrival in the town of Pizarro and his troops. As de Soto approached, he pulled his stallion to a halt in front of Atahualpa and the foam from the horse’s mouth was said to have flown into the face of the Inca king. Many of the nobles, who had never s...
