Rehabilitating a Gujarati Red Sea and Gulf of Aden chart Join John P Cooper and Kumail Rajani as they explore a 19th-century Gujarati chart of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden from the Society’s Collections.

Learned so much from Kumail Rajani & John P Cooper about the late-18th-century Gujarati sea chart in the @rgsibg.bsky.social collections. You can listen to this and other Be Inspired lectures via our talks on demand service. #skystorians #histcart #maps 🗃️
