"Palaestina in XII Tribus divisa cum Terris Adiacentibus, 1750" refers to a specific historical map of Palestine (Palaestina) created by the Homann Heirs cartographic firm in 1750. The Homann Heirs were successors to the well-known German cartographer Johann Baptist Homann.

This map would have depicted the region of Palestine as it was understood and represented in the 18th century. It would have shown the division of Palestine into the twelve tribal territories, as described in the Bible, along with the surrounding lands and geographical features.

The Homann Heirs, also known as the Homannianos Heredes or Homannian Heirs, were a prominent and influential cartographic publishing house based in Nuremberg, Germany, in the 18th century. This cartographic firm was founded by Johann Baptist Homann's son, Johann Christoph Homann, after Johann Baptist Homann's death in 1724.

Johann Baptist Homann was a renowned German cartographer and map publisher who established himself as a leading figure in European mapmaking during the early 18th century. His maps were highly regarded for their accuracy and detail, and he was appointed Geographer to the Holy Roman Emperor in 1715. After his passing, his son, Johann Christoph, took over the business and continued to produce maps and atlases under the family name.

The Homann Heirs continued the tradition of creating high-quality maps, atlases, and globes. They were known for their maps of various regions around the world, including Europe, the Americas, Asia, and the Holy Land (including the map you mentioned, "Palaestina in XII Tribus divisa cum Terris Adiacentibus, 1750"). Their maps often combined geographical information with decorative elements, making them both informative and aesthetically pleasing.

The Homann Heirs' maps played a significant role in disseminating geographical knowledge during the 18th century and were widely used by scholars, explorers, and governments of the time. Today, their maps are highly collectible and sought after by collectors and historians interested in the history of cartography.
