Text in Arabic reads: "The first map for Egypt governorates was drawn by the French expedition cartographers at the beginning of the 13th century H. (1213-1216 H.), but the hardships and resistance they have faced during their work, in addition to their ignorance of the Arabic language misled them to put the Arabic names on the right locations. All that lead to various mistakes in the French map and the maps that copied from it until we produced this map.\r\nTherefore, Khedive Ismail of Egypt, ordered me “Mahmoud Bey al Falaky” to draw a new map with the needed corrections. As the needed cartographic tools were not available at the time, I resorted to the astronomical coordinates.\r\nThe map was finished in 1287 H. representing all the cultivation and urbanization that has been implemented upon the orders of the khedive on that year."\r\n\r\n\r\nLithography by F.A.

The map includes avenues or Percements through the fabric of the old city. The important religious monuments of the city, Islamic and Christian, were differentiated both by color (red for mosques, and blue for churches and synagogues) and notation (numbers for the mosques, and letters for churches and synagogues). The map identified a total of 282 mosques on it, of which nine were unnamed. . . . close examination of the 1874 map reveals that this document was a project and not the actual description of the place. --- Arnaud (1993, p. 82).Arnaud, Jean-Luc.
