Map of africa has imagery of monsters in the sea, shows dangerous areas of the sea, it means unknown. If you don"t know something, then it is dangerous. Same skin tone, shows image of african people in the mind of europeans. Animal representation shows how strange and foreign africa seems to. Peopling suggests that there weren"t already people there.
