Original Note:
The theory that the 1513 Piri Reis map depicts Antarctica is rejected by scholars There's no reason to believe that it's measures date from Ancient Egypt The map accurately depicts Arabia, but gets less accurate further out, exactly what one expects from a middle eastern map https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piri_Reis_map
