The Face of the World

How do humans find their way around the planet? How do they know where roads lead and what lies on the far side of the ocean? Did Marco Polo have an atlas showing the route to China? Did the Romans mark the borders of their empire on maps? For thousands of years unknown, distant lands guarded their secrets. And yet accounts of these mysteries were described in travel books and imaginative maps.
