[loxodrome]
Bound sheet. Col. ms. Medium: Laid on linen. Cartographic Note: This loxodrome was drawn to form the basis of a sea chart. A circle 15.8cm in diameter was subtended from a central point and 16 equidistant points (at 22.5 degree intervals) were marked on its perimeter. Each of the 17 nodes thus created has 32 lines radiating out from it and 16 of the 32 lines connect each node to every other node on the sheet. The loxodrome is crudely drawn and that may be the reason it was not used. Additional Places: Ireland.
