So last week I was in Maui and other than a broken toe I got this SICK map of Ancient Greece

It’s a print of a map of ANCIENT GREECE as perceived by ANCIENT GREEKS! It was originally done in France in the 1800s so it’s all in French and Greek! It includes the names of the ancient islands and the routes of the argonauts and Odysseus!

I love this so much I’m so happy

The place I got this from is Lahaina Printsellers. They’re online too and have ORIGINALS not just prints like these! If you’re a history nerd CHECK THEM OUT!! They’re so cool
