The manuscript of the map, together with othere drawings of the Florida Indians was acquired by De Bry after the death of Le Moyne in 1588 and was engraved for the Brevis Narratio eorum quae Floridae America Provinciae Gallia acciderunt which formed part II of the Grand Voyages series from 1591 onwards. Many of the place names shown on the map were derived from Indian sources many no longer extant, having been superseded by names given in the seventeenth century by English colonists. De Bry's version of the Le Moyne's map was later adapted by Hondius in 1606 in his editions of Mercator's Atlas.
