ANCIENT MAP IS BELIEVED GUIDE FOR COLUMBUS Old Chart Found in Turkey Thought Copy of Original. p,u Science Rrrvtet NEW YORK, Oct. 12—Startled to find the name Columbus mentioned on an old Turkish map of the Atlantic ocean, Paul Kahle has subjected the map to closest study, finding on it important new clews to the discovery of America. In a report on his investigations, to appear in the forthcoming issue of the Geographical Review, official organ of the American Geographical Society, Dr. Kahle announces his belief that for the first thne geographers have an idea of the appearance of the map which served to guide Columbus on his first, voyage. “We now are in a position even to reconstruct this map to a certain extent,” he declares. Believed Direct Copy No maps indisputably drawn by Columbus himself are shown in existence today. The maps which he undoubtedly drew to show the King and Queen of Spain where lay the fine lands he had found in their honor have vanished. Nor have searches ever revealed any chart by which the navigator steered his cours* on the world's famous voyages of discovery. Hence, the importance of the Turkish map, which appears to be a direct copy of one of the lost maps by Columbus. By translating the long Arabic inscriptions on the map, Dr. Kahle found that it was made for the Sultan Selim I, in 1513, and it specifically states that new lands are shown, as added lately by the “Genoese infidel Colon-bo.” Undetected For Centuries In quaint language, the Turkish map maker told the story of Columbus' discovery voyages, and declared thu u he followed a map by Columbus himself in drawing these new lands. The source of his information was a Spanish slave, who had traveled three times with Columbus on his long voyages. The map made for the sultan has laid undetected in the seraglio at Constantinople for centuries. Its discovery has stimulated interest in seeking the original Columbus map which the map-maker copied and which may have been preserved in Turkey. Some months ago the American ambassador to Turkey requested a search. A high Turkish official sent a circular letter to directors of museums in the country and to scholars studying Turkish maritime history, asking their assistance. So far no trace of the original map has been reported.
