Description
English: This map is from "A New Voyage Round the World", published in 1697 by William Dampier, the English sea captain, naturalist, and occasional pirate. The Miskito coast is marked with a star. Dampier and his associate, the surgeon Lionel Wafer describe the Miskito peoples in the period 1690-1700. These tribal groups, often mixed with runaway slaves, formed a distinct culture in the coastal region, sometimes forming alliances with pirates against Spanish authorities in the 16th-18th centuries.
