My ancestor and an early world map

Open Culture this week offers a good article about an early world map, commissioned by King Roger II of Sicily, who is supposedly an ancestor of mine.
 Look at the article if you're interested, but beware, the map is oriented with south at the top of it...for a reason.

Thanks for commenting! I tried moderating, thinking that would be a quicker way to check on comments, but actually it takes more time. So go ahead and talk amongst yourselves, and I'll check in when I can!!
