Thank you all for your support on our first map! We've got more coming soon: maps of indigenous and colonial holdings in the south in 1776 and the Second Punic War in 218 BCE. Also in progress: the 1898 Wilmington coup. #uniquemaps #uniquegifts #Map #culture #History

Who doesn't love a symmetrical city? Reminds us of Count Ludwig von Zinzendorf's circular plan for the Moravian settlement of Salem, NC that never came to fruition. Drafted by 1755, the plan intended to promote equality, good public health, isolation, and church supremacy

This Carthaginian coin held by the British Museum depicts Melquart, Punic King of the Underworld, and Hannibal upon an elephant. Minted in Spain 227-209BCE, it's possible that this was a commemorative coin of Hannibal's march across the Alps, narrowing the mint date to 218-209BCE
