Dr. Karen Pinto accepts an Associate Editor Position with Terrae Incognitae.
Terrae Incognitae is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal published semi-annually by the Society for the History of Discoveries. It is distributed to members of the Society and to institutional subscribers. The aim of Terrae Incognitae is to examine the history and impact of geographic exploration and cross-cultural interaction around the globe prior to the modern era. Recent articles have ranged from the use of DNA technology to track the movement of chickens and thus populations in pre-historic Oceania to the role of the Order of Christ in furthering 16th-century Portuguese expansion; from the significance of inter-cultural adoption or rejection of clothing for understanding cross-cultural interaction to Marco Polo’s influence on cartography.
