    To clarify: “Palestine/Filastin” was the colloquial term to refer to the region across the Mutasarrifates of Akka, Nablus, and Jerusalem which were Ottoman administrative districts.

    This is beautiful cartography, what MapPorn is all about. I hope the comment section doesn’t turn into a shitfest.

    Am I missing something? If you read the map, there is no vilayet of Palestine. Not even a sandjak!

    Bahr i Lut , wow didn’t now Ottomans called it that lol

  5. The ottomans didn’t call it “palestine”.
    For 400 years it was called “Ottoman Province of Syria” or “Southern Syria” or “the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem”.

  7. Is the first map showing all the way up to Tyre as Filistine? Also what is up with the south, where there no people south of beer Shiva?

    I was led to believe that was a land without a people for a people without a land? Turns out that empty land did have people on it, funny thing that.

  9. It’s like maps of “The Midwest” in the US right down to the region depicted being different from map to map.
