Summary/Abstract: Among the alternative ways of understanding the meaning of maps, by means of a transdisciplinary research of 18th-century cartography of Transylvania, such as that of “The First Military Surveying” map, visual perspective may bring forth a novel approach. By tracking the development of the settlements’ representation, as evinced by the respective map, one can draw a new map which underlines the dwelling density and is instrumental to comparative researches of cartographic resources.
