Description from the 1st upload (de.wiki):* Das Matabelereich im heutigen Zimbabwe in einer Atlaskarte von 1887, dem Jahr vor der Kolonialisierung durch Cecil Rhodes.
- Die breiten Farbbänder an den Grenzen europäischer Besitzungen und Staaten sind original. Die Grenzen der beiden schwarzafrikanischen Staaten sind im Original mit schmalen Farbbändern hervorgehoben.
- Eigene Bearbeitung ist die Flächenfärbung der schwarzafrikanischen Staaten, die rote Hervorhebung von Hauptstädten, die orangenefarbene von Ruinenstätten und die blaue von Gewässernamen.
- Wie die an mehreren Stellen in Klammern gedruckten Quellenangaben verraten, beruhen große Teile der Karte nicht auf einer Landesaufnahme im heutigen Sinne, sondern auf einzelnen Reiseberichten. Die Karte ist also viel ungenauer, als die feine Schlängelung der Flüsse nahelegt. Besonders auffällig: Great Zimbabwe ("Simbabye") ist nicht als Ruinenstätte eingetragen sondern als bewohnter Ort, auf korrekter geografischer Breite, aber 100 km zu weit östlich.
