Alberto Maria De Agostini travelled at a period when the map still had blanks on it, and filled some of them.
The record lists Alberto Maria De Agostini as Italian explorer.
Alberto Maria De Agostini was born at Pollone in 1883. His recorded nationality is Italy.
Nineteenth-century exploration turned inland - Africa, Asia and Australia - and was entangled from the start with empire, missions and the geographical societies that funded it.
He is recorded as explorer, photographer and catholic priest.
The record of exploration is also a record of the people already living in the places reached.
Alberto Maria De Agostini died in 1960, aged 77. The routes and charts outlived the journey, which is how exploration is actually measured.
