Traveling to Jerusalem
John Poloner
Brief Biography:
Little is known of this author. He was probably German. He apparently made the earliest or one of the earliest maps of the holy land, but the map was lost. Much of his description sounds markedly like that found in the works of Barcardus of Monte Sion and in Felix Fabri. The text does not appear to be complete.
Brief Itinerary:
The text seems to be incomplete and his itinerary cannot be recontructed with any accuracy.
- John Poloner's Description of the Holy Land (c. 1421), based on the translation of Aubrey Stewart from the Tobler text. London, 1894.
