#Reading "Ibn Fadlān and the Land of Darkness" and this map took me RIGHT back to the very first time I ever saw a map that looked like it:
As a 7 year old reading my uncle's copy LotR. The style of the maps are so similar I blame that for misreading "Ural Mountains" on this map as "Uruk-Hai Mountains" Yrch! 🤦‍♂️😂 #Bookstodon #History #Nonfiction @bookstodon
