This map is an amazing work, but it has one major problem: the whole coastline is flooded. Regardless of the actual layout of most estuaries and of course the main lake where Tartessos is purported to have existed, it seems the map was created by simply raising the whole sea level by a number of metres in order to "create" the aforementioned lake. The predictable result is a map that completely alters the whole coastline from the south of Portugal to the province of Alicante, erasing the area of El Ejido or making Illikitanos Limen (Santa Pola) an island. It should be corrected or replaced.--Il Qathar (talk) 16:38, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
