of a work on geography and trave 1, written by an anonymous
Franc iscan Fria r,a nat ive of Spa in
,who tel ls us that he
was b o rn i n I 305 . Two of these texts are i n the Nat ional
L ibrary at Madrid,the th i rd is i n the Royal L ib rary. The
Span ish ed i to r ha s d ist ingu ished them a s R,N

were wri tten i n the l ast th i rd of the fifteenth centu ry,and

the first page,and h is portra i t i n the in i t ia l l etter. Vera
bel ieved that the codex S belonged to the Marqu isl,and
Espada , the ed i tor, had no doubt after exam in ing the
books i n the l ibrary of the Duke of Osu no,which belonged
to Sant i l lana . Buthe fel t some doubt whether the m in iatu re

The l ate Do n Marcos J ime’

and accompl ished scholar to whom Span ish -American
h istory owes so much,u ndertook to ed i t the m anuscript
of the anonymou s Franc iscan,and d i d so with the aid of
the em inent geographer Do n Franc isco Coel lo . The work
wa s pub l ished at M ad r id i n 1 877 with an alphabet ical i ndex
of place names and identifications so far as was poss ib l e.
The flags are given on one sheet,i nstead of be ing placed

There can be no quest1on of the date of the original

quoted by Pierre Bo ntier and Jean le Verrier, the chaplains
to Jean de Bethencou rt,who wrote in 1404
1. Bethencou rt
,
having reconnoitred the Canary I s l ands and occu pied the
two easternmost of them,conceived the project of exploring
the A frican coast from Cape Boyado r, and reach ing the

were pub l ished i n the work of Bo ntier and Verr ier , ed i ted

The earl ier cri t ics of the Franc iscan ’s narrat ive were
on ly acqu ainted with the fou r chapters given by the
chapla ins of Bethencou rt,who wrote in the i r chapter LVI I
that they om itted certain marvel lou s th ings l est thei r
readers shou ld th ink they were l ies . On the strength of
th is passage main ly,Bergeron remarks on the inexact i tude
of the h istor ica l and geographical data,and o n the confused
geography. Peschel says that the narrat ive of the friar
contains so many absu rd it ies that i t is l i ke a huge j oke ?
Buthe said,in another place
,that the friar gives an exce l lent
accou n t of Mel l i,i n the k ingdom of Go tan ie
,which places
he identifie s 3 . More l Fat io says that i t is wri tten from a

travel . Referr ing to what the Franc iscan says abou t the
Eu phrates he is of opin ion that the work is a confused
compi lat ion of the geograph ica l t rad i t ions of the t ime , and
a of Ed ris i . Here my old friend is certa in ly
wrong,for the account of the Euphrates by the Franc iscan
is ent i rely d ifferent from that of Ed r is i . The fr iar d id
not derive h is i n format ion from that sou rce . D’

,Pesche l
,D
’
Ave z a c
and M ajor on ly knew the work from the ext racts re lat ing
to A fri ca,given by Bo ntier and Verrier.
The op in ions of those who had stu d ied the who le work
must have more weight . Senor Espada,the Span ish ed itor
,
a scholar of profou nd erud i t ion and impart ial i n h is
judgments,came to the conclus ion that the Franc iscan
wa s a travel ler and not a mere compi ler of trad i t ions.
Mr Beaz ley,who u sed the L ibra del Conoscz
'
m im to for h is
Dawn of M odern Geog rapfiyl
,thinks that i t is a record
largely of an imaginary j ou rney. Baron Nordensk io ld,in
h is Perz'
plus came to a s im i l ar conc lus ion . He wrote I t
must not be supposed that the Franc iscan made al l the
j ou rneys recorded i n the L z

There are obv iou s difficu ltie s with regard to the theory
that the Franc iscan wa s merely a compi ler . From what
cou ld he compi le ? Mr Major thought that h is accou nt
of the Euphrates wa s a ré aka zzfi‘

INTRODUCTI ON
h is period was"
too early for i t to be poss ib l e that he cou l d
have used any of the m edim va l au thori t ies on geography.
The l atest date he gives is 1 3481. H e may have written
i n 1 3 50 or fol lowing years. H is book is i ndeed one of
the very earl iest med iaeva l works on geography,i f not the
earl iest . The first known compass chart is the Carte
P isane ” of 1 300. That of Carignano was d rawn soon after
1 300, and ha s some Bal t i c towns and is l ands. These and
the map of Marino Sanudo (1 32 1 ) alone preceded h im .
A ugel l ino Da lo rto’
s map is dated abou t 1 330. The Lau ren
t ian Portolano 2 is supposed to date from 1 3 5 1 , b ut may be
l ater. O ther Porto lan i and maps are m u ch l ater,that of the
Piz igani 1 367 , the Catal an of Charles V of France 1 37 5—78 ,th e Valseca 143 1 , B i anca 1436, that of Fra Mau ro 14 5 7 ,
of
Ben incasa 1476. There wa s noth ing,with in h is reach
,from
which the Franc isca n cou l d pi rate h is narrat ive .
The friar cla ims to have v is i ted every part of the known
world . This cannot be conceded l i tera l ly. But he wa s
probab ly a great travel ler,and he d i l igent ly col lected al l
the geograph ical i n format ion he cou ld obtain , i n the various
places whither h is wanderi ngs took h im . At th is d istance
of t ime what he actual ly saw cannot a lways be separated
from what he heard .
The Franc iscan wa s the first to m ent ion and give the
names of most of the Canary I s l es,the Made i ras and A zores .
He also su ppl ies some in terest i ng part i cu l ars, gathered on
the spot,respect ing the fate of S o rb o ne V i valdo, when in
search of h is father Ugol ino, the leader of the Genoese
exped i t ion of 1 29 1 ad pa rtes I ndia er m a re Ocea num .
When he vis i ted Cologne and saw the tombs of the three
K ings,he obj ected that he had been shown thei r tombs
i n a c ity i n China . The statements respect i ng Gog and
Magog, original ly derived from the prophet Ezek iel,were

x i i INTRODUCTION
accepted by A rab geographers,whi le thei r local ity wa s
moved to the far north - east of As ia . The fr iar may wel l
have heard the t rad i t ion du r ing h is t ravels,b uth is a l leged
res idence i n the cast le of Magog cannot be accepted . H is
deta i led accounts of the Gu i nea coast and the i nterior of
A frica are pu zz l ing in some respects, b ut, a s Peschel ha s
shown,they prove a knowledge on ly to be deri ved from
in format ion at or nea r the local i t ies. This knowledge may
be due to contact w ith members of Genoese and Venetian
caravans which penetrated far i nto the interior from Cai ro,
Bugia and other points,du ring the fou rteenth centu ry
The Franc iscan wa s the first to fix the local i ty of Prester
John in A fri ca .
One very i nterest ing featu re of the L z
’
bro del Cow
scz
’
m z’
m to is that the tex t is i l lust rated by the arms,flags
,
or dev ices of al l the cou ntries , i n colou rs. There are a few
d ifferences i n the three cod i ces. This is the very earl iest
representat ion of the flags of al l nat ions .
From a geograph ica l point of V i ew the work of the
Franc iscan is important , because he was the first to describe
the Canary I s l ands , Madei ras and A zores ; and because he
wa s the first to give an accou nt of A fri ca sou th of the
A t las i n any detai l . He gives a clear and prec ise defin itio n
of the famous R i o del O ro,the N iger of Pto lemy and
Pl iny,the N il Gana of the A rab geographers, and the
modern Senegal . He goes on to describe S ierra Leone
and the Gu l f of Gu i nea . A ll th is is so exact that i t bears
the appearance of being based on persona l know ledge.
Butthe'
re st of h is not ices of equatoria l A fri ca are con fused
and seem to be from hearsay .
Senor Espada made researches to ascerta in the name
of the anonymous Franc iscan t ravel le r,who began and
ended h is t rave ls at Sevi l le , with the ass istance of Pad re
Fray Marce l l i no de C ivezza,the chron ic ler of the Franc iscan
order,b utwithou t success .
INTRODUCTION x i i i
The work was admirab ly ed i ted by my lamented friend
Do n Marcos J i menez de l a Espada , and h is l abou rs leave
noth ing to be desi red . I t is wel l and l earned ly annotated,
and there is a complete alphabet ica l i ndex of names with
attempts at ident ifi cat ions , more or less su ccessfu l . The
notes i n the present t rans l at ion are nearly al l those of the
Span ish ed i tor condensed . I have on ly added an index
of place names arranged under regions,to precede the
alphabet ica l i ndex,another referri ng to matters of h istorical
interest,and a few notes with C. R . M .
Do n Marcos J imenez de la Espada wa s an indefat igab l e
ed i tor of rare manuscripts ch iefly relat ing to the Span ish
conquest of Peru ,and the c iv i l isat ion of the I ncas. H is
learn ing wa s profou nd , h is judgment sou nd,h is indu st ry
marvel lou s . To these he added a most am iab le and ob l iging
d ispos i t ion , sparing no troub le to ass ist h is friends. I t wa s

Sarm ien to espec ia l ly that I found h is hel p invaluab le . My

rocky dales. W i th in th is TARTARIA there are countless

God,except that they do no evi l one to another. They are
very c o nfident,and great fighters both on foot and o n
horseback,i nsomu ch that A lexander was unab le to conqu er
them,or to enter thei r cou ntry by the mounta ins for
they shu t and fastened those i ron gates by plac ing great
rocks against them , and they were c losed for a long t ime .
Eventual ly they removed the obst ruct ion ,com ing o ut and
