Abstract: | It is an aim of the present paper to show that in the last century cartography was used in a way more or less complex, more or less intertwined with other disciplines and databases, not as pure representation or in the spirit of the simple ’fits’ that supported continental displacements, but as experiments of greater complexity with a value of proof in favor of the planet expansion and full of suggestions for Physics, Astronomy, Cosmology. |
