Description: An outline map of Europe at a time when sea levels were lower than present, with Iceland, the British Isles and Scandinavian Peninsula a part of the mainland, and the Mediterranean, not connected to the Atlantic Ocean, split into two bodies of water by an Italian–African land bridge. This map also shows extensions of major river routes as they would have appeared at the time.
