Hi buddy

Explanation:

Map 1 was made in 1154 CE by al-Idrisi, an Arab geographer. ... Map 2 was made by a French cartographer in 1720. Both maps are quite different from each other, even though they represent the same area.

Answer:

Same as he said

Explanation:

Map 1 was made by an Arab Cartographer named Al-Idrisi. Map 2 was made by a French Cartographer. The two maps are quite different from each other even though they are of the same place.

In Al-Idrisi's map, South India is where we would expect to find North India and Sri-Lanka is the Island at the top.

Map 2 was made nearly 600 years after Map 1, during which time information about the subcontinent had changed considerably. This map seems more familiar to us and the coastal areas in particular are surprisingly detailed. This map was used by European sailors and merchants on their voyages
