"Typus Chorographicus, Celebrium Locorum In Regno Iudae et Israhel arte factus a Tilemanno Stella Sigenensi, 1624" is a map of the Holy Land published in 1624 by Abraham Ortelius. It is one of the most detailed and accurate maps of the region produced in the early modern period. The map is notable for its blend of geography and religious history, with many of the locations labeled with their biblical significance. The map also includes a number of decorative elements, such as a compass rose and a cartouche with a portrait of Ortelius.

The map was created by Tilemann Stella, a German cartographer who worked in Antwerp. Stella was a student of Gerard Mercator, and his map of the Holy Land is based on Mercator's earlier map of the region. However, Stella made a number of improvements to Mercator's map, including adding more detail and accuracy.

The Typus Chorographicus was published in 1624 as part of Ortelius' Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, the first modern atlas. The map was a popular success, and it was reprinted several times in the 17th century. It is still considered to be an important historical document, and it is often used by scholars to study the geography and religious history of the Holy Land.

Abraham Ortelius (1527–1598) was a renowned Flemish cartographer, geographer, and mapmaker from the 16th century. He is often regarded as one of the pioneers of modern cartography and is best known for his work in compiling and publishing one of the earliest and most famous atlases in history, "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" (Theatre of the World), which was first published in Antwerp in 1570.
