I'm not an expert, I was just reading a book about Nearchus and thought a map can help me to understand it better.Meanwhile I also added some pics.

Hi Cyrus,That looks great - I can see this growing and growing ... if you have the time and inclination! Just imagine a series of photographs showing all the salient points of the coastline, perhaps with the descriptions from 'Indica' to go with them ...CheersMarcus
