Rudimentorum cosmographicorum Ioann. Honteri Coronensis libri III. cum tabellis geographicis elegantissimis. : De uariarum rerum nomenclaturis per classes, liber I
Honter's Rudimentorum cosmographicorum is a Latin cosmography and geography textbook printed in Zurich in 1549 by Froschauer, for students learning the subject. Its pictures are woodcut maps with dense place names, coastlines, hatched mountain ranges, and small town symbols, showing the Mediterranean, Asia Minor, Sicily and the Danube lands; a designer might borrow their engraved line density and hand-lettered labels for antique cartographic patterns.
