Waddell’s Place-Name Connection Map
A map of Europe and the Mediterranean combines dense place labels with selected names in red. Its heading identifies Waddell’s proposed connections between ancient names and later places. The colour distinguishes parts of his argument rather than simply marking travel routes. This is a map of a historical author’s hypothesis, not an independently verified account of ancient settlement.
