A map of Mataram in the late 19th century showing it as a kampong (village) surrounded by paddy fields (rectangular parcels of land for growing rice). The map’s whole area is now just part of what is the largest city on the island on Lombok.

Two maps of Lombok (Lesser Sunda Islands) from the time of the Dutch intervention which led to the colonisation of the island. Both maps focus on roads: the first covers the whole island; the second focuses on the capital city of Mataram.

This map of the city of Mataram, on the Indonesian island of Lombok, shows the city surrounded by detailed illustrations of mountains which, the map’s subtitle notes, ‘serve de murailles’ [serve as its walls].
