Ancient schematic map by S. U. Remizov dated 1699–1701 of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irkutsk" class="extiw" title="en:Irkutsk">Irkutsk</a> city and the nearby territories (not in scale and distorted: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Baikal" class="extiw" title="en:Lake Baikal">Lake Baikal</a> is drawn much smaller. North is in the bottom of the map. All the signs are in old Russian orthography, but easily recognizable for Russians (the difference: «Байкалъ» – «Байкал», «Градъ Иркуцкой» – «Город Иркутский», «Ангара рѣка» – «Ангара река»). Lake Baikal is called «Baikal Sea» («Море Байкалъ»). Scanned image, <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.baikal.ru/map/remez.htm">sourse</a>
