Karte des Heiligen Landes in frühern Eintheilungen, a map of Palestine hand-drawn by F. H. Haberlach. [Germany or Austria, mid-19th century?].
Map of Palestine and its surroundings, showing five areas: "Judea" (whose southern border touches the south of the Dead Sea. "Steiniges Arab." – Stony Arabia – is located south to it), "Samria" (Samaria), "Galilea" (Galilee), "Land-janseit-des Jordans" (Trans-Jordan), and "Perea" (in south Trans-Jordan). The borders of each area are marked in a different color.
The map is signed by the painter, F. H. haberlach and alongside his signature appears a number, presumably indicating the date: "12/12.40" (12.12.1840?).
