Everything about Martin Heilwig totally explained

Martin Heilwig (1516-1574) was a cartographer from Silesia. He was born in Neisse and died in Breslau, Holy Roman Empire. (While his region has had strong ties to both the German and Polish cultures and political histories, his name and affiliations were strongly German.) He was a student of Martin Luther and Philip Melanchthon.
   In 1561 he copper-etched a map, a single-sheet cartouche of Silesia, which he published under the title "Silesiae Typus" and dedicated to Nicolaus Rhedinger. His map was later republished in several versions of Abraham Ortelius's pioneering world atlas "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum".
