"Belgii Veteris, Low Countries And East Anglia In Roman Times" is a historical and cartographic work by the renowned 16th-century geographer and cartographer Abraham Ortelius. Ortelius, born in Antwerp in 1527, is best known for his groundbreaking atlas, "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum," which is often considered the first true modern atlas. "Belgii Veteris" is one of his significant contributions to the understanding of ancient geography, specifically focusing on the regions of the Low Countries and East Anglia during the Roman era.

The work meticulously maps and describes the territories that were once part of the Roman Empire, providing insights into the historical geography of these regions. Ortelius's detailed maps are accompanied by scholarly annotations that draw from classical sources, including the writings of Roman historians and geographers such as Tacitus, Pliny the Elder, and Ptolemy. This synthesis of cartographic precision and classical scholarship exemplifies Ortelius's method of combining historical texts with contemporary geographical knowledge to create a comprehensive depiction of ancient landscapes.

"Belgii Veteris" is notable not only for its cartographic accuracy but also for its artistic quality. Ortelius's maps are celebrated for their aesthetic appeal, featuring elaborate cartouches, decorative borders, and illustrations that enhance the visual experience. The work reflects the Renaissance humanist tradition, emphasizing the importance of classical antiquity and the revival of ancient knowledge.

Ortelius's contributions through "Belgii Veteris" have had a lasting impact on the field of historical cartography. His efforts to document and preserve the geographical understanding of the Roman world have provided subsequent generations with valuable resources for the study of ancient history and geography. Today, "Belgii Veteris" remains a significant reference for historians, geographers, and cartography enthusiasts, illustrating the enduring legacy of Abraham Ortelius's scholarly and artistic endeavors.
