The scroll reads: "Once Geographers used to add to countries they did not know horrible forests, seas impossible to navigate and fierce mountains... doing this they hid the truth and concealed many beautiful countries, scaring men from seeking them. But the Portuguese, looking for honour and riches, laid the columns placed by Hercules, the very ancient King of Spain. And sailing along these shores, they discovered these beautiful lands and disturbed the peace of these people." Photo: Rabatti & Domingie
