I thought the cordiform projection was invented by Johannes Werner in 1505. I'll have to check this sometime.

==Article not complete-- one important Oronteus Finaeus map is missing: the one that was published in 1531. You will notice that Antarctica is on the map. It is clear, without ice. Unfortunately for historians, Antarctica was not discovered until 1820.

Change name of article[edit]

Seems pretty clear that the most common spelling of his name is Oronce Fine. It's the spelling used by all the cited references and according to the one reference, it is specifically not spelled with an accent (Finé). Unless someone can show good reason why not, I am going to request the article name be changed. Glendoremus (talk) 03:21, 5 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thanks! Glendoremus (talk) 20:55, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
