Summary

Map C outlines the Peutinger map's rivers eastward as far as the Euphrates and Tigris on BAtlas bases;

Map D outlines the Peutinger map's routes on BAtlas bases – but not beyond Maps 87 and 89, because too little is known for certain hereon;

Map E outlines the Antonine Itinerary's routes (ItAnt) on BAtlas bases;

Map F outlines the Bordeaux Itinerary's routes (ItBurd) on BAtlas bases.

Maps C–F may be overlaid upon one another. Each has the same “mosaic” of bases, which allows the user to proceed seamlessly through BAtlas. A Locator Outline (Fig. 7) of the BAtlas maps comprising the mosaic forms part of this Appendix. Each individual BAtlas map can be brought into the mosaic, or removed, as the user wishes. Be aware that, where two or more overlap, the upper map may need to be removed in order for certain data marked on the lower to be seen.

The mosaic presents these BAtlas maps at a consistent scale, which the user may enlarge or reduce freely. Caution: These maps were all produced for presentation at either 1:1,000,000 or 1:500,000 scale (shown on the Locator Outline); as with any map, the results are liable to prove unsatisfactory if an enlargement is attempted far in excess of the original scale. The lack of high definition in the maps' presentation reflects their intended role as no more than background here.
