Abraham Ortelius's map titled "Daciarum, Moesiarum qve vetvs Descriptio," published in 1595, is a historical cartographic work created by this renowned Flemish cartographer.

Daciarum and Moesiarum refer to historical regions in southeastern Europe during antiquity. Dacia was a Roman province that covered parts of modern-day Romania, Moldova, and Bulgaria. Moesia was another Roman province located to the south, covering parts of modern-day Serbia, Bulgaria, and North Macedonia. Maps of Dacia and Moesia from the 16th century typically depicted these ancient regions, their boundaries, cities, rivers, and other geographical features.

Abraham Ortelius (1527-1598) was a prominent Flemish cartographer and geographer of the Renaissance era. He is best known for his pioneering work in the field of cartography, including the creation of the world's first modern atlas, "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum," published in 1570.

Ortelius played a crucial role in advancing the organization and presentation of geographical information by compiling and standardizing maps from various sources into a single comprehensive atlas. His contributions to cartography and geographical knowledge continue to be celebrated, making him a key figure in the history of mapmaking. Ortelius's work had a significant influence on the development of modern mapmaking and geography.
