Map of the mountain Koh-i-Malik Siah (also referred to as Malik Siah Koh in file) [Malek Sīāh Kōh] and surrounding area, around the frontiers of Afghanistan, Persia [Iran] and Baluchistan [in present-day Pakistan], produced from a survey made by George Passman Tate. The map is signed by Colonel Thomas Hungerford Holdich, Royal Engineers. The map indicates: topography, with an indication of relief; heights for two summits, expressed in feet; the Afghan-Baluch boundary, marked as a red dashed line; the Perso-Baluch and Sistan boundaries, marked as solid mauve lines.
A note on the map states that heights indicated on the map are barometric determinations by Ahmad Kali, and are liable to correction. A printing statement in the bottom right of the map states: ‘Heliozincographed at the Survey of India Offices, Calcutta [Kolkata].’
