About the Item
Antique map titled 'Kaart van Oost Indie'.
Old map of the East Indies. It shows the routes of Captain William Dampier's voyage throughout the region. Dotted lines delineates explorations from Guam, through the East Indies, the Philippines, Formosa (Taiwan), Indochina, the Gulf of Siam, and touching Northern Australia (Nouvelle Hollande). This was the first British scientific expedition to the region, gathering important data on the flora and fauna of Australia and New Guinea. This map originates from the rare Dutch edition of 'A New Voyage Round the World' by W. Dampier.
Artists and engravers: William Dampier (baptized 1651-1715) was a buccaneer (pirate) and sea captain. He was the first Englishman to explore parts of New Holland and New Guinea, and was the first man to circumnavigate the world three times. In the 1670s he crewed with buccaneers on the Spanish Main of Central America, which eventually led to his first circumnavigation. On the ship Cygnet, following Pacific-spanning raids that included the East Indies, Manila, and the Spice Islands, Dampier's ship was beached on the northwest coast of Australia in 1688. Waiting for repairs, his scientific interest surfaced as he made notes and drawings on the local fauna and flora. Following three years of further adventures he returned to England. In 1697 he published his experiences in A New Voyage. Described as one of the greatest tales of adventure and exploration ever written, the book was published in several languages. It is reported that Captain Cook used Dampier's nautical observations on his voyages, and Charles Darwin found his books so useful that he took them aboard the Beagle.
