¶Copyright Notice for Agas Map

The so-called Agas map (Civitas Londinumthat appears on this website is an idealized edition of the map. Our copytext consisted of high-resolution digital scans of the eight sheets of the London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) 1633 copy of the map (one of three copies that survive). We were able to use these scans as our starting point by kind permission of the City of London, London Metropolitan Archives. Janelle Jenstad and Kim McLean-Fiander, working with graphic artist Jillian Player, then reconstructed missing sections of the map from the evidence of other maps and long-views, documentary evidence, and George Vertue’s eighteenth-century pewter-plate map, which was based on the 1561 map that no longer survives. Developer Greg Newton made thousands of adjustments to the map to improve the clarity of lines and shapes crossing sheet edges. MoEML holds the copyright on its edition of Civitas Londinum and has licensed it for non-commercial use with attribution under a CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license. If you wish to use our edition of the map for any purpose other than classroom teaching, illustrative images in academic publications, and slides in conference papers, please contact london@uvic.ca.
