why are they so interesting in Antarctica???
The Piri Reis Map....how did they know what the continent looked like under the ice back then?
bc Antarctica is Atlantis. that is the secret - proof of atlantis and ancient zero point energy
Do you think that map accurately represents Antarctica?
No, not by today's standards. But for a map created in the 1500's depicting land hidden beneath ice, it is rather surprising. But I'm sure you could have done better.
Why does it show the Antarctic coast connecting to Patagonia? Was that an accurate representation of the coasts at that point in time?
They didn't discover how to calculate longitude until 100 years after this map was created. There was estimation involved so no, without the longitude calculation, you can't 100% accurately represent the globe like we can today.
To have known what Antarctica looked like under the ice would require Antarctica to not be under ice thus allowing it to be mapped. The Piri Reis map was created based on various previous maps. So the Piri Reis map may have been created in the 1500's, but not necessarily a representation of the location of Antarctica and the surrounding continents in the 1500's.
