The Carta Marina of 1516, was created by Martin Waldseemuller, who is most famous for another map, published in 1507, called "America's Birth Certificate." Based on a talk by Chet Van Duzer from May 2020.

"My book about the Carta marina is actually in Open Access, though the publisher does not make the link easy to find for some strange reason. Here are the details and the link:
Van Duzer, Chet, Martin Waldseemüller’s Carta marina of 1516: Study and Transcription of the Long Legends (New York: Springer, 2020) —available in Open Access at https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-22703-6"
