150 Ptolemy's 4th Asia map Ptolemy Ptolemy's map is considered the "prototype delineation" of the region. The earliest known copy, pictured here, is the "Codex Vaticanus Urbinas Graecus 82", thought to be from a manuscript of "Ptolemy's Geography" assembled by Maximus Planudes in Constantinople c. 1300.[1] The large red letters in the center say in Greek: Παλαιστινης or "Palaistinis".  
385 Jerome map Jerome and Eusebius The earliest known copy is from 1150,[2] the "Tournai map of Asia", shown here. The map comes from a manuscript of Jerome's "De situ et nominibus locorum Hebraeorum", which Jerome states is a copy of Eusebius's Onomasticon.[3] Jerome also explains that Eusebius composed a map which showed the divisions of the Twelve Tribes; no copy of this division has survived.[4] "no regional name shown"

It was only Abuna Kleofas Kikilides who realised the true significance, for the history of the region, that the map had while visiting Madaba in December 1896. A Franciscan friar of ltalian-Croatian origin born in Constantinople, Fr. Girolamo Golubovich, helped Abuna Kleofas to print a booklet in Greek about the map at the Franciscan printing press of Jerusalem. Immediately afterwards, the Revue Biblique published a long and detailed historic-geographic study of the map by the Dominican fathers M.J. Lagrange and H. Vincent after visiting the site themselves. At the same time. Father J. Germer-Durand of the Assumptionist Fathers published a photographic album with his own pictures of the map. In Paris, C. Clermont-Gannau, a well known oriental scholar, announced the discovery at the Académie des Sciences et belles Lettres.
