Hi All, I have a question on the problem below - I chose D instead of E (I think both choices work). I thought that, to challenge the statement, we could also question the relationship between ancient map and European map. Maybe the landmass comes from some other sources instead of old civilization, and that the Europeans refer to them instead of/besides the ancient maps to make their own maps, as it’s said in the problem that “maps are known to have served”. Therefore, the statement failed to consider all other possible sources other than the ancient civilization that could contribute to their decision to put the large landmass on their map. Anyone could comment on that? Thank you!!
Do you not think “whose maps are KNOWN to have served as models for the European cartographers” is proof that this wasn’t the case?
