Mappa Mundi
The BBC had a wonderful series on the Beauty of Maps back in 2011. One episode focused on the Mappa Mundi:
Medieval Maps Part 1
Sadly the BBC has taken down all copies of Parts 2 and 3. And they do not sell a copy of the program. (grumble grumble)
Mappa Mundi from the Folio Society
Here are links to the Part 1's of other parts of the BBC series.

Welcome!
You've found the class website for GGS110 Maps & Mapping this Fall 2014 at George Mason University. I will be using this site to store images and links to maps discussed and shown in class.
