"Plan du Port de la Ville, et des Forteresses de Carthagene" is a map created by William Laws in the 18th century that shows the port, city, and fortresses of Cartagena, a city in present-day Colombia. The map provides a detailed depiction of the layout of the city and the fortifications that were built to protect it. 

The map was created during a time when Cartagena was an important center of trade in the Spanish colonial empire. The city's strategic location made it a target for attacks by rival European powers, as well as by pirates and privateers. To protect the city, a series of fortifications were built around the harbor and the city itself, including the famous Castle of San Felipe de Barajas.

The map by Laws provides a valuable historical record of the city's layout and fortifications at the time, and it has been studied by historians and cartographers to understand the city's development and defensive strategies. Today, it is a valuable artifact of the colonial era in Latin America, and it is held in the collections of several museums and libraries around the world.
