What part of the world did the portolan charts come from?
in general the countries surrounding the Mediterranean. The word portolan is from the Italian. They were intended for navigation from port to port, rather than the wide ocean. Columbus probably had a ('appropriated') fragment of a Portuguese one - originally from Turkey - that he used in his Spanish-sponsored voyage to the new world.
