Kitab-ı Bahriye, showing Corsica

... that the surviving copies of the Kitab-ı Bahriye (pictured) contain over 5700 total maps?

Source: Goodrich, Thomas D. (2004). "The maps of the Kitab-i Bahriye of Piri Reis". Piri Reis Sempozyumu. Istanbul Military Museum. Archived from the original on 16 May 2015. In the various copies of the Kitab-ı Bahriye there are more manuscript maps than that of any other cartographer ever. So far the total number of manuscript maps is 5704, and there is at least one manuscript whose maps are not yet tabulated.[...] The total may rise to 5800 [...]

ALT1: ... that a sixteenth-century nautical atlas (pictured) is one of the few sources of information on its author, Piri Reis? Source: Soucek, Svat (1992). "Islamic Charting in the Mediterranean" (PDF). In Harley, J. B.; Woodward, D. (eds.). Cartography in the Traditional Islamic and South Asian Societies. Vol. 2. Chicago: University of Chicago Press. p. 266. The first direct evidence we have of Ottoman chart-making is several extant works by the naval captain Mul;ylddin Piri Re'is (ca. 875-961/ca. 1470-1554). Re'is means captain in Turkish, but despite Piri Re'Is's position and long experiencein the Ottoman navy, almost no biographical information exists outside his own works, particularly the Kitab-i bahriye (Book of maritime matters), a manual of sailing directions.

Comment: In edit summaries, I noted that I copied some lines from Piri Reis. You can use this Earwig link to see what was copied: [1] It's less than a 100 words of prose (and a bunch of tabular data).
