This finely engraved map of central Italy shows the historical regions and peoples relevant to the early formation of the Roman Republic. Titled Carte pour servir d'introduction à l'histoire de la naissance de la République Romaine, it illustrates areas such as Etruria, Latium, Campania, Umbria, and Apulia. The map outlines the territorial distribution of ancient Italic tribes—Etruscans, Volscians, Samnites, Sabines, and others—offering a valuable visual reference for understanding the geo-political foundations of ancient Rome.

This map was published in Amsterdam in 1743 as part of Introduction à l’Histoire générale et politique de l’Univers, a monumental encyclopedic historical work originally begun by Samuel von Pufendorf and later expanded by Bruzen de La Martinière. The edition was overseen by Zacharie Chatelain, a notable publisher known for his collaboration on the Atlas Historique.
