This map from 1677 shows great detail of New England. Trees and rivers portrayed as well as ships, ocean, animals, settlers, hills. This map does not include accurate numbers, however objects are included to symbolize what is included in the land, as well as the ocean. It would be very useful for settlers and people deciding to come to America or not. It would also be useful for Native Americans to see what areas have been settled and which area would most likely be expanded into next.
