This print is a derivative of John Smith's famous 1612 Virginia Colony map. This particular derivative is by Dutch cartographer Henricus Hondius.
Smith primarily collected the information for this map with two voyages around the Chesapeake region in the summer of 1608.
The map is oriented with north pointing to the right. It is as if you are sailing from Europe looking towards the colony. A longhouse with Chief Powhatan is pictured in the top left. This is a scene John Smith saw when he was captured. There is also a Susquehannock on the right. Smith reported that these people were giant.
This derivative is the only one with the Native American looking inland. Another interesting difference from the 1612 map is the abundance of mountains.
