Note 401 — Chapter I · (continued 2)

There is a manuscript map of Hispaniola attached to the copy of the 1511 edition of Peter Martyr in the Colombina Library which is sometimes ascribed to Columbus; but Harrisse thinks it rather the work of his brother Bartholomew (Bibl. Amer. Vet., Add., xiii.) A map of this island, with the native divisions as Columbus found them, is given in Muñoz. The earliest separate map is in the combined edition of Peter Martyr and Oviedo edited by Ramusio in Venice in 1534 (Stevens, Bibliotheca geographica, no. 1,778). Le discours de la navigation de Jean et Raoul Parmentier, de Dieppe, including a description of Santo Domingo, was edited by Ch. Schefer in Paris, 1883; a description of the “isle de Haity” from Le grand insulaire et pilotage d’André Thevet is given in its appendix.
