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
