Educational Technology Clearinghouse: Maps Etc: Smith's Map of New England, 1616

Curated by ACT

A facsimile of an early map of New England as observed by Captain John Smith in 1616. The map covers the coastline from Cape James (Cape Cod) and Stuards Bay (Cape Cod Bay) north to Pembrocks Bay, and includes the inscription "The most remarqueable parts thus named by the high and mighty Prince Charles, Prince of great Britaine."e; As noted in the text: "Smith's map did not originally contain a single English name, but the young Prince Charles, to whom it was submitted in accordance with Smith's request, changed about thirty 'barbarous’ Indian names for others, in order that 'posterity’ might be able to say that that royal personage was their 'godfather.’ A number of Scotch names were selected, among others, by the grandson of the Queen of Scots." - Winsor, 1884, p. 198.
