Old Maps

I do not have a strict definition of “old maps” in my mind. The closest thing is perhaps to define old maps as anything outdated in a political, geographical, and historical sense. I’m sure this definition is flawed in more ways than one but, hey!, my website, my rules. Enjoy these free, old, public domain maps!

For now I am ordering these maps by age rather than by location. In the future I will be fixing this to allow users to search by country/continent/region and also by date, as well as perhaps other attributes.

Maps from:

1901-1910

1908: Maps from “The Atlas of Ancient and Classical Geography” by Samuel Butler (& edited by Ernest Rhys).
