Adieu Lyon!

The 30th edition of the biannual International Conference on the History of Cartography (ICHC) 🗺in the 'gastronomic capital of France' was a delectable smorgasbord of presentations on some of the latest scholarship around the history of maps and map making.

Speakers from a range of disciplines presented an array of papers for discussion, from the reevaluation of Chinese cartography, to indigenous sources of knowledge; from mapping river systems to mountain ranges. Plenty of food for thought!

Also a wonderful opportunity to meet and catch up with curators, map librarians, and scholars from around the world.

Many thanks to the organizer and hosts
