How to read this map

Connections join located entries in chronological stages; other recorded places stay in the text. Dashed connections pass intervening stages without a map position. They do not document a travel route or continuous service.

Entries within the same Gregorian year are not ordered. Stages with more than one located locality remain unconnected; each source place stays visible.
