The confusion of the geographic position of Southeast Asia, India, Arab Peninsula and
East Africa within the mapHunyi Jiangli Lidai Guodu zhi Tu(Kangnido)

Abstract
It is widely believed that the "Map of Integrated Lands and Regions of Historical Countries and
Capitals" [Korean: Honil kangni ryktae gukto jido; Chinese: ] was
combined by the Chinese maps and the Arabic maps during the Mongol-Yuan dynasty. This article
researchs the name of places in Southeast Asia, India and Arabic Perninsula, and proves that the map
preserved a low geographic knowledge of those region. Vietnam, Thailand, both east and west coast
of Malay Peninsula, and even a port of Sumatra were all lined up along a straight coast. Both the
Gulf of Thailand and the Malay Peninsula disappeared. The India was cut into north and south part.
The North India correctly placed in the Asia continent. But the South India was drawn as a big island
within the Indian Ocean. All the coastal cities known by the Southern Sung dynasty were placed into
this South India Island. The port Zufar (in Oman) was not at the south coast of Arabic Peninsula
but was placed into another non-existent island, south of the South India Island. The famous port
Mogadishu (in Somali) was not at the east coast of Africa but was placed into non-existent island
where located at south of the South India Island and South Arabia Island. Those mistakes were
due to the low technique of voyage. Due to the difficulty in calculating wind speed, Chinese sailors
only remembered some islands and hills along the route for reminding the position of the ship.
Therefore, they did not care about the actual size and shape of those places. On the other hand, the
Arabic maps even did not record the India coast and Southeast Asia. This map reflects the low-level
geographic knowledge around the Indian Ocean by both the Chinese and Arabic source. Joseph
Needham claimed that this map was the first one with the Africa continent point south. But I think
that we should investigate this map much more before we prove Josepth Needhams claim.
