Orontius Phineus' 1532 world map shows Antarctica without ice cover
One would believe the historians that the southern continent was drawn simply to balance the map, that it is a fiction and fantasy, that they simply did not know about the ice cover, if not for one thing - the continent in its general outline remarkably resembles a modern image, and the mountain ranges on the outskirts corresponded to the numerous rises discovered in Antarctica only in recent years.
Not too much of a coincidence for a simple coincidence?
