Author:  Sebastian Münster (*1488 - †1552)

              was a German cartographer, cosmographer, and a Christian Hebraist scholar. His work,                    the Cosmographia from 1544, was the earliest German description of the world.

Map title:   Novae Insulae XXVI Nova Tabula /Basle/ 1544

Description: Munster's map of America is the earliest map to show all of North and South America in a true continental form. The first edition of the map appeared in Munster's Geographia, first published in 1540. However, it was the map's inclusion in the 1544 edition of Munster's Cosmographia that forever caused America to be the name of the New World, perpetuating Waldseemuller's choice of names in a popular and widely disseminated work.
