CONTENT: This map, illustrated in the East India traveller Carl Johan Gethe’s journal (‘Dagbok hållen på Resan till Ost Indien, Begynt den 18 octobr: 1746 och Slutad den 20 Juni 1749’), is of the ideally sheltered harbour of the city of Cadix, where many of the Swedish East India Company ships lay at anchor in order to replenish their stores and carry out trade. Olof Torén’s first voyage stopped over there in 1748; some other of Carl Linnaeus’ apostles, Pehr Osbeck (1750) and Christopher Tärnström (1746) spent several months in Cadix and its environs on their way to China; even Pehr Löfling’s South America expedition set sail from there in 1754.
