Note 1273 — Chapter XII · REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY

Guido’s mappamundi of 1119 indicates “insunt tres Indiae” (Miller, Mappaemundi, vol. iii, 1895, p. 54). Lambert’s map designates the three divisions as “India prima, hic pigmei et fauni et reges gentium,” “India secunda,” and “India ultima, hic arbores solis et lunae” (ibid., p. 49). The Jerome map of the East represents “India ultima” as extending from the Indus to the “Hipanis,” bordering on Persia and Carmania, and including the city of Ophir. “India inferior” lies between the “Hipanis” and the Ganges, and “India superior” to the northeast, between the Ganges and the Octorogorra, a river rising in the Caucasus (ibid., pl. 1). Pullé, La cartog. antica, pt. 2, 1905, p. 31, conjectures plausibly that these three divisions may represent in order, Punjabic India, peninsular India, and Gangetic India.
