1673 Man headed bear ape after Ogilby
Papio and man-headed beast. Published in Amsterdam in 1673 by Jacob Von Meurs for Arnoldus Montanus " De Nieuwe en Onbekende Weereld" after the first book related to America by Ogilby. This is from the German edition titled "Die Unbekante Neue welt,oder Beschruebung des Welt-teils Amerika". The images are confusing on many levels. The Papio parion 1 seems based on Topsell's Papio,which looked even more like a baboon than this image,but was described as a hyaena (this mistake goes back to Gessner 1551). Neither hyaena or baboon are found in South America of course. The man faced Papio 2 may be based on earlier representations of a tethered three toed sloth (a true South American) for similar see Topsell's "bear-ape arctopithecus". Few authors or engravers in the 16th-17th century had direct experience with the exotic animals they described. As yet zoology was barely a science
