This is an ongoing project created with the goal of tracking the earliest and latest appearances of The Kingdom of Juda / Whydah on maps. The Kingdom of Juda began appearing on maps in the early 1700s and disappeared from maps by the early 1900s. Multiple explorers, linguists, and historians believed the area contained The Lost Tribes of Israel.
