This picture is a map of North Carolina itself rather than a view of one of its towns, so it shows the whole state at once: the long Atlantic coastline, the barrier islands of the Outer Banks, and the rivers that drain inland toward the sounds and the sea. North Carolina was one of the original 13 colonies, and its shape on older maps reflects how slowly its interior was surveyed compared with the coast. Maps like this one were used by settlers, traders, and officials to plan travel, land claims, and trade routes. Look at how the coastline is drawn, since it often reveals what the mapmaker knew and what was still uncertain.
