A map is a symbolic depiction highlighting relationships between elements of some space, such as objects , regions , and themes.
Many maps are static two-dimensional, geometrically accurate (or approximately accurate) representations of three-dimensional space , while others are dynamic or interactive, even three-dimensional. Although most commonly used to depict geography, maps may represent any space , real or imagined, without regard to context or scale ; e.g. brain mapping , DNA mapping and extraterrestrial mapping.
Although the earliest maps known are of the heavens, geographic maps of territory have a very long tradition and exist from ancient times. The word "map" comes from the medieval Latin Mappa mundi , wherein mappa meant napkin or cloth and mundi the world. Thus, "map" became the shortened term referring to a two-dimensional representation of the surface of the world.
