Tinplate 11 — Alcina

Alcina. The island is about the size of Sicily. It is named after a princess. According to some travelers, the island lies near the coast of Japan, while others believe it is located in the Caribbean Sea. The forests in the southeast of the island are dominated by citrus, cedar, palm, and large areas of laurel trees. Rich deposits of myrtle spread across the meadows and plains west of the inland's low hills. Long, bloody civil wars broke out when the three princesses, Alcina, Morgana, and Logistilla, divided the kingdom after their father's death. The island was first described by the French military man Ruggiero in 1735 and mapped by Ludovico Ariosto in 1516.


Alcina.
Ön är till ytan stor som Sicilien. Uppkallad efter en kungadotter. Enligt vissa resenärer ligger ön nära Japans kust, andra menar att ön befinner sig i Karibiska havet. Öns skogar i sydost domineras av citrus, ceder, palm och stora områden av lagerträd. Rika förekomster av pors breder ut sig på ängarna och slätterna väster om inlandets låga kullar. Långa blodiga inbördeskrig utbröt när de tre kungadöttrarna, Alcina, Morgana och Logistilla delade upp riket efter sin fars död. Ön är först beskriven av den franske militären Ruggiero 1735 och kartlagd av Ludovico Ariosto 1516.
