Summary

Description
English: Nubia on al-Idrisi's small map (1192), which swaps north and south. The map contains several errors, like placing Makuria (domkola) south of Alodia (galua) or placing Philae (Bilak) in the area between the Nile and the Atbara river, although it should be located just south of Assuan.
