Almost 400 years ago a sheet of the world map was manufactured in Japan by someone related to Catholic Missions. In 1986 in Tokyo a Japanese private collector gave this map to Kenneth Nebenzahl, an American map-dealer, and the map is still in the United States. The primary study was done by Alfredo Pinheiro Marques, a Portuguese historian of cartography, but this map must be examined by Japanese scholars in cartography and Kakure Kirishitan.
