Bibliotheca Geographorum Arabicorum

The Bibliotheca Geographorum Arabicorum (BGA) is a series of critical editions of classic geographical texts written by several of the most famous Arab geographers. All original editions, including the indices and glossaries, were produced by M.J. de Goeje between 1870 and 1894 and published by Brill. The BGA also includes the updated edition of Muqaddasī's Kitāb aḥsan al-taqāsīm by De Goeje and J.H. Kramers’ re-edition of Ibn Ḥawkal’s Kitāb al-masālik wa-l-mamālik.
