What are Non-characteristics of historical maps?

Non-characteristics of historical maps include modern cartographic conventions such as uniform scales, standardized symbols, and precise geographic coordinates. Unlike contemporary maps, historical maps often lack detailed topographic accuracy and may incorporate artistic elements or subjective interpretations of landscapes. They may also reflect the cultural, political, or social perspectives of the time, rather than objective geographic data. Additionally, historical maps often prioritize certain features or areas based on their significance to the mapmaker, rather than providing comprehensive coverage.
