>>10804097>Great Wall of China Marco Polo wrote an extensive and detailed account of Asia in the 13th and 14th centuries and did not even mention a wall. The Great Wall is not seen on any maps pre-dating the late 1600’s.>So most of it’s construction occurred in 1700’s and it was built to keep the encroaching Chinese out of Tartaria.>The openings on the wall are on the north side towards the former Tartary not on the south China facing side.>It should be called the Great Wall of Tartaria.The map that was presented to Putin.
