     18th International Conference on the History of Cartography
                    Athens, 11-16 July 1999
     -----------------------------------------------------------

     Deadline for 250-word abstracts (which can be emailed):

                    ** OCTOBER 1st **

     The main theme of this conference is the Cartography of the
     Mediterranean World but abstracts can be submitted on *any*
     aspect of the history of cartography.

     Contributions are particularly invited from anyone currently
     working with early maps, who would not consider themself to
     be a 'historian of cartography'.
