Two Hawks From Earth

Description

Ok. I'm uploading my alternate history maps, starting with the older and crappier ones and working forward, so they'll get better with time.

Greetings and salutations.

This one is the world from Philip Jose Farmer's "Two Hawks From Earth."

It's an alt-geography world: India has yet to collide with Asia, and most of the Americas are under water, with the result that the Amerind people went west, rather disrupting the migrations of the Indo-Europeans and other OTL ethnicites (and oddly enough, maintaining some of the same tribal identities as OTL. Note the Iriquoi-like Hotino-etc., and the Itskapintik are Aztec-equivalents.)

It's a bit ASB (the protagonist himself suspects that the world may have been deliberately settled with people from other TLs, long ago). Europe is colder than OTL due to the effects on the Atlantic current: white areas are largely uninhabited due to glacial conditions.
