The same issue of this journal contains a 6-verse limerick with side-notes
that describe the anthropomorphic map of Aphrodite in North Africa ...
written by yours truly. Contact me off-list for a table of (mostly
Phoenician) body-part terms that became the names of geographic areas in
West Asia and North Africa.
By contrast, on similar maps produced by American Indians, the male and
female bodies are always a discrete/discreet distance apart.

I suspect that ancient Hindu mapmakers knew that Turtle Island (America)
was on the other side of the world.

Compare Algonquin "terrapin" (turtle) and Hebrew שר××× SHiRYoN (shell) at
a time when the shin had a dental T-sound and the consonantal vav had a
Ph/F-sound.
