[Image: Right margin, oriented with East at the top, a portolan-style map of the northeastern part of the Mediterranean coast, which is freely outlined in ink and shaded with a green wash. The island of Cyprus (label: cipri.) appears near the top, washed light brown, with the cities of Famagusta (label: famagosta) and Nicosia (label: nicosia). Below that, the island of Rhodes (label: rodi) appears in red. Between the two islands, the Mediterranean Sea is named (label: pontus.). A distance line between the two islands is labeled in unidentified units (label: 300). To the right, two other numbers (labels: 200 and [700?]) are not associated with visible distance lines. Various ports are labeled along the coasts of modern Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey; starting from the southernmost port (the top right of the page) and moving north and west (counterclockwise), they are: Beirut (label: baruti), Tartus (label: tortosa), [Latakia/Laodiceia?] (label: la lecha), [Alajah?] (label: la laha), Tarsus (label: tarso), Corycus (label: curchio.), Polopoli (label: palopoli.), [?] (label: artiozetta.), Alanya (label: candelor), Antalya (label: satelia.), Fethiye (label: macri), and [Kastellorizo/Meyisti?] (label: messi).]
