Strabo's map was one of the earliest attempts by a Greek geographer to create a map of the inhabited world known to them. It depicted Europe, Asia and parts of northern Africa based on the geographical knowledge of peoples within the Roman Empire and other Hellenistic kingdoms of the time. The map set out to represent the main physical features and locations of peoples and places known to exist in the inhabited regions of the world.
