Title
A name given to the resource
"Islands"
Description
An account of the resource
This layer outlines the coasts of all the land not included in the major landmasses outline, so all of what would be considered “islands,” when the definition of “islands” doesn’t include what were the “continents.” I’m having a tough time determining an appropriate title for this layer, but I think the quotes are somewhat helpful in conveying the uncertainty I have about this label.

Inhabited/ Uninhabited Land

Map layer 3 - Animals
Description
An account of the resource
Containing small illustrations of creatures, this layer is interesting because it reflects another type of commodity for use as a trade resource: fur. Here we see bears, foxes, beavers, etc. To me, it can also depict a level of artistic play that the cartographer seemed to represent and embody.
