Atlases
An atlas is, by definition, a collection of maps arranged into a coherent whole according to the key adopted by the author. Unlike a single map, an atlas shows space systematically: it enables the user to compare areas, track spatial relationships, and better understand the contexts of the phenomena presented.
In cartographic collections, atlases are of particular research value because they document not only the state of knowledge about the world at a given time, but also the development of cartographic techniques: the method of generalization, the selection of content, symbolism, the language of descriptions, and editorial standards. The maps contained in them are often accompanied by additional elements, such as introductions, indexes, legends, and comments, which facilitate the analysis of old toponyms and the interpretation of representations.
