Описание: The Hereford Mappa Mundi is a world map that was drawn in the late 13th Century and is currently on display in Hereford Cathedral. The largest surviving map of its kind, it depicts the then known world as perceived by the scholars of the medieval British Isles. Decorated with drawings inspired by passages of the Bible and ancient Greek folklore, the map also depicts many strange and fantastic creatures of both human and animal form, believed by many to have roamed the earth at that time. An exact replica of the Map, produced by the Folio Society, has been very kindly donated to the Co. Tipperary Library Service by Mr. Shay Hurley, Clonmel, and, in the coming months it will tour the Library branches of Co. Tipperary.
