Abstract: We present results of a study of the information about the medieval maps and travellers’ geographic descriptions of Turkey. It is based on Ian Manners’ monograph “European Cartographers and the Ottoman World 1500-1750” (University of Chicago, 2007). The obtained chronological distributions show some peculiarities; we discuss one of them.
