The reading and analysis of historical cartography is a challenge that involves the interpretation of patterns, the recognition of places and paths, the understanding of the interrelations between the objects represented and the meaning behind the choice of colors, symbols and toponyms used to describe real objects located on the Earth. The study focuses on the analysis of the important and specific cultural heritage represented by large scale historical cartographies and on the role of these sources for geo-historical reconstructions.
