Inventory ID: 2. 75. Description: Scare and highly detailed map illustrating the course of the Ganges and Ghaghra rivers with numerous inset charts describing various depictions of the rivers sources. The map is drawn from the manuscripts of Joseph Tieffentaller, a Jesuit missionary and one of the earliest European geographers to write about India. Tieffentaller was a fine scholar with an unusual talent for languages, as evidenced in this map that includes numerous notation in Persian script The detail along the rivers is unsurpassed. Joseph Tiefenthaler's 1. Ganges and Ghaghara (Karnali) depicts the river system in remarkable detail for the period. Tiefenthaller's map was a significant advancement over earlier mappings of this region. The map consists of six maps. The central map shows the entire course of the Ganges and the Ghaghara rivers, and was drawn by Tiefenthaler based upon his own travels and quadrant surveys as well as on the indigenous cartography he collected along the way. Four of the five smaller maps are drawn from Tiefenthaler’s manuscript copies of Indian maps acquired along his travels. Tiefenthaler’s copies of Indian cartographic material include figures II, III, IV, and V. Figure II correctly locates the source of the Ganges at the Gangotri Glacier, Gaumukah, known as the “Cow’s Mouth” due to its strong resemblance to the open mouth of a cow. Figure III, a large map at the top center, focuses on the Lake of Mansarovar (Mansaroar), the supposed source of the Karnali or Ghaghara River.

It is unlikely that Tiefenthaler actually ever say Mansarovar as this lake is located high on the Tibetan Plateau which, during this historic period, was closed to foreigners. Figure IV is another Indian chart focusing on the secondary sources around the volcano of Doulou Bassandar. Figure V shows a secondary source for the Ghaghara as it runs through the Himalayas. Figure VI depicts earlier misconceptions regarding the source of the Ganges as suggested by P. Souciet in his 1.
Observations, Mathematical, Astronomical, Geographica, Chronological, and Physical. One of the most striking elements of this map is the inclusion of Pesian text in each of the maps Tiefenthaler claims to have copied from indigenous sources.
These text blocks are vaguely transliterated and translated into French in a table in the upper left quadrant. While commenced by Tiefenthaller, the map was completed by Anquetil- Du Perron in Paris. Joseph Tieflentaller (1.
Jesuit missionary and noted geographer. He entered the Society of Jesus in October, 1. East Indian mission where he occupied various positions, chiefly in the empire of the Great Mogul. After the suppression of the Society he remained in India, and on his death was buried in the mission cemetery at Agra, where his tombstone still stands. He was a fine scholar with an unusual talent for languages; besides his native tongue he understood Latin, Italian, Spanish, French, Hindustani, Arabic, Persian, and Sanscrit. He was the first European who wrote an exact description of Hindoostan. In geography, he wrote a "Descriptio Indue", that is a circumstantial description of the twenty- two provinces of India, of ite cities, fortresses, and the most important smaller towns, together with an exact statement of geographical positions, calculated by means of a simple quadrant. The work also contains a large number of maps, plans, and sketches drawn by himself, and the list of geographical positions fills twenty- one quarto pages. He also prepared a large book of maps on the basin of the Ganges, entitled: "Cursus Gánete fluvi India.

Benares to Patna, measures 4' 3" square. In addition there is a map of similar dimensions of the Gagra, the whole accompanied by numerous notes, sketches of particu- lar parts, and maps giving details—an "enormous la- bour", as Bernoulli calls it. He also wrote a work on the regions containing the sources of the chief rivers of India. In the field of religions he wrote on Brah- minism a work directed against the errors of the Eng- lishmen Z.
Holwell and Alexander Dow. Others of his writings were on Indian idolatry, Indian asceti- cism, the religion of the Farsees, Mohammedanism, the relations of these religions to one another, etc. His writings in the department of the natural sciences are: astronomical observations on the sun- spots and the zodiacal light, studies on the astronomy, astrology, and cosmology of the Hindus, descriptions and obser- vations of the flora and fauna of India.

The department of history is represented by writings in Latin on the origin of the Hindus and of their religion, an account in German of the ex- peditions of Nadir Shah to India, the deeds of the Great Mogul Shah Alam in Persian, and in French the incursions of the Afghans and the conquest of Delhi, and the contempo- rary history of India for the years 1. In linguistics he wrote a Sanscrit- Parsee lexicon, trea- tises in Latin on the Apotheosis or St.

H. Anquetil- Duperron (1. The latter gave due credit to the value and importance of the works, especially those on geography, in his addresses before the French Academy of Sciences ("Journal des Scavans", Dec., 1.
