Answer 1

Explanation:

Older maps weren't maps as we'd know them now. They were more like the walking maps many hikers use today that describe specific routes, but don't describe much beyond the path. So a merchant who had reason to travel long distances might acquire a route map that described the path between two cities, the villages along the way, places to get water etc.
