~450 BCE Herodotus Map

Found this today and it seemed fun to share. There are other versions that don't show the ocean completely encircling the lands of the Earth, like [this one for example](https://www.worldhistory.org/img/r/p/1500x1500/159.png.webp?v=1661378891), but seeing maps like the one shown here where the ocean encircles all the land really put me in a place where I can imagine telling a story about a serpent that lives in the ocean and is so large that it also encircles all the lands of the world.
