Description: |
Folding map of Gallipoli, Kurija Dere or Koja Dere region. Folding coloured paper map mounted on linen. Reference to other maps printed on rear of linen.
This copy of the Kurija Dere map is extremely stained, and one must assume that these stains originate from the battlefield around Anzac Cove at Gallipoli. This map has been digitally repaired for clarity of display, but you can view the original stained condition of the map below.

Of great interest to Australian and New Zealand researchers will be the section showing Anzac Cove, Maclagan's Ridge, Hell Spit, & Brighton Beach. The contour lines on this section of the map clearly illustrate the formidable landscape that confronted the ANZACs upon landing on the Gallipoli beaches.
