To magnify the 12 segments (Tabulae) click on them. The first segment (not original, but reconstructed in 1916 by Conradus Miller) starts with the Straits of Gibraltar and finishes at the end of the 12th segment with the Chinese frontier (Sera Maior). The oceans, seas, lakes, rivers and extreme frontiers are stylised with a dark green colour. The mountain ranges are shown as humps on the map whilst the great forests are shown by little trees.
