Summary Description: This unsigned and undated manuscript chart attributed to Joan Martines of Messina by Clara Smith, who noted the presence of Spanish flags on Portuguese colonies (Portugal and her colonies were part of the Spanish empire between 1581-1640). Because the Strait of Le Maire is shown (but not named), Max Justo Guedes has dated the chart 1616 or later, the year of its discovery by Jacques Le Maire.
