New 11th Edition Map is Our Best Ever! It’s the Guide That Pays for Itself, with two sets of Coupons (print and digital) for Free Beer, Drinks, Deals and Bargains at dozens of Colorado locations!
Back in the days, way back, back before the internet, before electricity, before paper, pre-pencil, pre-spoken language, everybody made maps. It’s how our early ancestors began to communicate.
We’d sit grunting around the campfire and scratch out the day’s activities with a stick, jabbing and dragging lines in the dirt to indicate a new discovery or food source for all to see. Maps, drawn crudely on the ground, were freely amended by the group. No, the creek was over here, and the dead mastodon was over there.
When everyone had their poke at it, before moving along, the map was usually destroyed by sweeping the dirt away, lest it be seen and read by a rival tribe. This map was vital information, by and for the exclusive use of the group. Information was powerful, mysterious stuff that had real value, and should be protected.
When maps became portable, notable landmarks discovered along the way were added, and geographic knowledge shared with trusted others. Maps got bigger, more dense with squiggles and odd shapes, and the collective understanding of the world as portrayed in primitive maps spurred exploration. Maps and copies of maps flourished, and soon everybody knew the way to San Jose.
False Flag. Dead End. There Be Dragons Here.
Maps were used as much to inform as misinform. If a valuable map, with the encyclopedic contributions of many, fell into rival enemy hands it could be disastrous. Shit, now everybody knows where to find the good grapes. However, if all of “us” knew that the spot marked “deep waterhole” was really a “venomous snakepit”, then it was our little joke. If some fool outside our circle followed the map and jumped in, ha ha, too bad.
The practice of placing false and misleading info on maps became high art when papyrus and then paper maps became common. Maps had strategic value, and by fooling the enemy, they could be used as a weapon. Accurate map knowledge was kept secret, and restricted to trustworthy souls on a need-to-know basis.
Today, of course, you don’t need to know. Just whip out your phone, hit a button, and there you are, within 10 centimeters. The ubiquity of right here, right now has changed how we relate to maps, and has given us the means to find our way anyplace on Earth (and on other worlds as well) without much effort. However, this place-finding is not to be taken for granted.
