Are the Rosettes a biblical-themed map?
#1
Initially, I believed that all of the Rosettes were a map of a city. However, I later realized that this interpretation was rather absurd, as there would be no point in creating such a map for a single city.
After looking at them again, I noticed the following: the four Rosettes in the corners of the quadrifolium differ from all the others (including the island) in that they most closely resemble geographical features (a hill on the top left, a city on the top right, a lake on the bottom left, and a second city or temple on the bottom right).
And I thought the following:
"There was an wrong image"
1 - Mount Sinai
2 - Jerusalem
4 - I've always thought that the area above the blue cross was farmland. This may be a depiction of Gosen.
These are the very first associations.

The central Rosettes (by the way, their difference is that they are all symmetrical and "schematic") may have a clear religious meaning. If we consider the central island as a hill (rather than an actual island), it could represent the Heavenly Jerusalem.

What do you think?
