"On the verso is an unfinished manuscript map that depicts a locality, with all details unlabelled, with sub-jurisdictions outlined in the own bright hues, and a river running through it, while a legend, upper-right, defines unused symbols. We have not been able to identify the subject of the map, and even whether it pertains in any way to Taiwan. However, the note in the lower right, seems to refer to “Nagai Village”, which if true might refer to a town in the Yamagata Prefecture of north-central Japan. This is perhaps a matter for further research." (See Pub note)

A photographic reproduction of a time chart in Ottoman language in the middle depicts the history from the times of antique to the early 20th century. The chart is based on the 19th century Western examples of the time charts, representing the world history through streams of colourful rivers, marking various cultures, merging and disappearing through the horizontal lines of time zones. The juxtaposed hand written text in the margins represents the history of the world from the perspective of the Muslim calendar. Listed are countries and nations and their important events from the Day of Ressurection [Yawm al-Qiyāmah], with the earliest historical events starting around the year 4100 Before the Hijra, to Hegira (Arab. الهجرة, also Hijra or Hijrah), the year of Muhammad's departure from Mecca to Medina, in 622, the epoch of the Islamic calendar.

List No

Note
The five maps represent the earliest period of the Islam. The central map showcases the ancient borders of the city of Mecca and the roads leading to it. The three smaller in-set maps of the Arabian Peninsula in margins illustrate the spreading of the Islam in the years 9, 10 and 11 after the Hijra, with the year 11 marking the year of Muhammad’s death. The last years of the life of Muhammad were crucial for the development of the religion. In 622, or in the first year of the Hijra, Muhammed moved to Medina, making it with the constitution (Constitution of Medina) the 1st Islamic state and the religious center under his leadership. After the prophet died in the 11th year of Hijra and the Islam spread in the neighboring areas, the leadership was divided between four men: Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman and Ali. The four leaders are also known as the Patriarchal Caliphs and the period as the Rashidun Caliphate (الخلافة الرّاشدة). This part of the history is only acknowledged by the Sunni Islam, as the Shia Islam only recognizes Ali as a legitimate successor of Muhammad. The three in-set maps of the Arabian Peninsula on this sheet mark the last years of the life of Muhammad, before the division into the Rashidun Caliphate. The golden dots on our in-set maps represent the Islamic States or Groups (Daulat-i-Islamia or here marked as: دولت يسلاميه) in the last three years of Mohammad’s life and the red lines their migrations to the other parts of the Arabian Peninsula. The first map in the upper right corner represents the migration of the Islamic groups from Medina in the year 9 AH (630 AD), the picture below the distribution of the groups in the following year. The last image (in the upper left corner) shows the locations of the Islamic Groups in the year of Muhammad’s death. The drawing in the lower left shows the graves of Muhammad (marked with gold dots), Umar and Abu Bakr in Medina, housed in the The Prophet's Mosque in Medina (Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, المسجد النبوي). The original mosque was built in 622 by Muhammad and it measured 30.5 m × 35.62 m (100.1 ft × 116.9 ft). Today the graves are covered with a Green Dome, built in the 13th century.

The sheet is composed of a hand drawing with original colour and gilt highlights, representing the city of Mecca, a hand coloured engraving, three photo-reproductions on cards and two black and white lithographs. The central image represents as many other images in this collection the navel of the narrative and the other images should be read from right to left. The central image showcases Mecca with its surroundings, as the city looked like in 1883 (1261 AH). Marked are 32 parts of the city including the suburbs and the camping areas for pilgrims. The other images represent the history of Mecca and showcase the following scenes: - Black and write lithograph on the right (قصى ابن كلاب دورنده مكه معظمه شهر. بك حصوله كلان هيئشدر. دار الندوه ابنيه سندر): The image represents an important moment in the history of Mecca, when Qusai ibn Kilab ibn Murrah (circa 400–480), a King of Mecca, a trustee and guardian of the Kaaba and an ancestor of Islamic Prophet Muhammad reconstructed the Kaaba from a state of decay and encouraged the Arab people to make a settlement around it. He is also known to be the first one to build the central office, what would be today close to the town hall in the Arabian Peninsula. - Engraving in the upper right (مكه مكرمه نك منظره عموميه سى): View of Mecca. - Black and white photograph in the lower right (مكه مكرمه حرمشريغك داخلا كورونشى): Mecca as the location of the Sacred Shrine. - Black and white photograph in the upper left (جبل عرفاتك منظرهء عموميه سى): Mount Arafat on the outskirts of Mecca. The hill is visited as a part of the Hajj and is the is believed by some, that Mohammad delivered the Farewell Sermon from that location. - Black and white photograph in the lower left (مينانك منظره عموميه سى): View of Mina (or Muna), a tent city on the outskirts of Mecca. The location can host up to three million pilgrims. - Black and write lithograph on the left(مسجد الحرامك جهات ثلاثه سى كوستر يله رك باب النعوش طرفندن آلنان رسميدر): View of the Kaaba in Masjid al-Haram. This image and the accompanying lithograph on the right-hand side come from the work Mir'atü'l-Haremeyn, a 5 volume work In Ottoman language on Mecca, Medina and the Arabic Peninsula. It was authored by Eyüb Sabri Paşa and published in Istanbul in 1884.

The plate, combining manuscript maps and a collage of printed images, represents the territories governed by the Islamic dynasties in the 4th, 5th and the beginning of the 6th century of the Hijra calendar (10th, 11th and a part of the 12th century of the Christian calendar), expanding from Spain and North Africa on the west, Sicily on the north of the Mediterranean Basement to Pakistan and parts of India on the east. The image is composed of a large central map, four maps on its left and right side and mounted images of coins in the left and right panel. The central map represents the Islamic world and the neighboring territories between 300-400 AH, which would mark the time of the late 10th and early 11th century in the Christian calendar. The key in the lower left part lists the Islamic rulers of the time with their names, time of their reign and the locations of their seats. The Islamic cities are heightened in gold, as the non-Muslim capitals and larger cities are marked with red. The accompanying maps show in detail four important areas, riled by the Muslim dynasties: - Map on the upper right (ال بويه دولتى ٣٢١ ٤٤٧) showcases the Persian Gulf with what is today Kuwait, parts of Saudi Arabia with Qatar in the southeast, parts of Iran and embraces the area of today’s Iraq and Syria with Aleppo on the West. The map represents the areas ruled by the Shia Iranian Buyid dynasty (also called the Buyids or Āl-e Būya) from 934 to 1062. In the 10th and 11th century the Buyids were the most powerful and influential dynasty in the Middle East with their territory expanding from large parts of the Arabic Peninsula in the south, to the parts of today's Turkey in the north and all the way to Pakistan on the east. - Map in the lower right (غزنويه دولتى) embraces the territory ruled by the Ghaznavid dynasty with larger parts of today’s Iran, Bukhara, Uzbekistan, on the north and Pakistan with western parts of India in the east. The Ghaznavid dynasty governed larger parts of this territory between 977 and 1186. - The map on the upper left (افريقيا و مغربده) represents North Afrika and Maghreb in the time of various rulers the time from 4th to 6th century AH (from late 9th to mid 12th century of the Christian calendar). - The map on the lower left (بن اخشيد دولتى (٣٢٠ ٣٥٧) بلادا اسلاميه) showcases the territory under the Ikhshidid dynasty. The dynasty under the leadership of a Turkish mamluk soldier Muhammad ibn Tughj al-Ikhshid was ruling the area of today’s Egypt, Levant and parts of the Arabian Peninsula between 935 and 969. The map marks the center in Levant with a large purple dot. The mounted images in the left and right panel illustrated coins from the time and territories, illustrated on the five maps.
