Henricus Martellus, in his world map of c.1490, and
Martin Behaim on his 1492 globe, incorporated the information from Marco Polo's voyage from China to India into the oecumene described in the Geography of Claudius Ptolemy (c.
La influencia de las cartografias de Claudio Ptolomeo y de Henricus Martellus Germanus se hace presente en el primer globo terraqueo conservado, obra del aleman

Martin Behaim in 1492, just as Christopher Columbus set out on his first trip to the West Indies.

Martin Behaim, in the same year that Columbus sailed west.
For example, when
Martin Behaim in the 1400s declared that the earth was round instead of flat (as had been suggested by Greek mathematicians such as Eratosthenes centuries earlier) and Christopher Columbus discovered the new world in 1492, there were many people unwilling to believe these new discoveries and openly worked to dispute and dissuade people from believing that the concept of the world was changing.
