Sources from old books

1638. The merchants mappe of commerce wherein by Lewes Roberts.

Numidia hath on the East Aegypt, on the West the Atlantique Ocean, on the North Atlas, on the South Libya: It will not be materiall to relate the Provinces, for in them are found but few Townes, by reason of the yearly progresse of the Inhabitants from place to •…ce in families and tribes; the Country abounding in Dates, 〈◊〉 food here of man and beast.

1682. Cosmography and geography in two parts by Richard Blome.

BILLEDƲLGERID is very improperly called Numidia by the Modern Authors: Numidia having been upon the Mediterranean Sea, which Billedulgerid touches not at all.

1685. Geographia universalis: the present state of the whole world by Pierre Duval.

BIledulgerid is the Numidia of the Moderns, and more Southern than the ancient Numidia.
