Abstract	This map is a redrawn copy, probably by John R. Swanton, of a ca. 1715 manuscript map in the British Public Record Office in London (C.O. 700, Carolina no. 3). The map portrays the southern part of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Florida. The locations of the various Indian tribes in the Southeast are noted, and statistics regarding the number of men and villages are reported. European towns, forts, and other settlements are identified, and major trading paths are shown. Tribes depicted include the Cherokee, Choctaw, Yamasee, Apalachee, Waxhaw, and Catawba.
Bibliographic Note	This map was formerly classified as M.C. 18-E.
