Tirinus, Jacobus. Chorographia Terra Sanctae in Angustiorem Formam Redacta et ex Variis Auctoribus a Multis Erroribus Expurgata ["The Chorography of the Holy Land with Correction of Many Errors."]

Tirinus' map orients to the east, with Sidon (today Lebanon) at the extreme left and the Nile Delta at the far right. In the waters of the Mediterranean off the coast of Israel are seen several fine old ships as well as the traditional mapmaker’s compass. In the center foreground there is an inset oval map of the Old City of Jerusalem, which is fairly accurate. The map of the Holy Land is surrounded on three sides by a total of sixteen vignettes of the Temple vessels, the camp of the Israelites in the desert, and the shekel coins of ancient Judea. Laor (number 771) speculates that the actual engraving was executed by Cornelis Galle. Though Tirinus boasted of his originality, there is no doubt that the map was modeled after that of Adrichom
