What is an atlas?
An atlas is a large collection of maps. In the 16th century, geographers Mercator and Hondt were the first people to publish this collection of maps in the form of a book. They used the picture of the mythological figure Atlas holding the Earth on the cover page of their book. Since then, this book of maps has been known as atlas.
