"Nieuw Aerdsch Pleyn" is a Dutch term that translates to "New World Square" or "New Earth Square" in English. Cornelis Danckerts the Younger and Jacobus Robijn were Dutch cartographers and engravers who were active during the 17th century, which was a significant period of exploration and mapmaking.

In 1696, they may have collaborated on creating a map or atlas with a title that included "Nieuw Aerdsch Pleyn." This map or atlas might have depicted the newly discovered lands in the Americas, hence the term "New World Square" in its title.
