TURIN PAPYRUS MAP FROM ANCIENT EGYPT and a petition

Hi, friends,

I have come across the first known document of topographic cartography which apparently is the "TURIN PAPYRUS MAP FROM ANCIENT EGYPT". Details in a good article here. I will probably try to make a map inspired in this. Uploaded some images from the article in order to inspire others.

By the way I feel a lack of leadership regarding map-making. More specifically I think a sticky post in Scenario Design/Map making with a list of desired maps is a MUST. If so, then you can have a ROADMAP of any campaign you want to design and anyone willing to start a map from scratch but lacking ideas can help better and quicker.

Thanks, will post the map if I achieve it.

P.S. I tried to delete this post because I should have posted it in the subforum "Design/mapmaking", but I do not know how to delete it. I have opened a new one in the subforum here.
