This 1797 anonymous map depicts three bays in New Zealand: Mercury Bay, the Bay of Islands, and Tolaga Bay. Each section of the map includes detailed measurements of the breadth and length of each bay, as well as descriptions of the surrounding areas. The map is a testament to the cartographic advancements of the late 18th century and offers a glimpse into the early European exploration of the South Pacific.
