The God Culture: 100 Lies About The Philippines: #7 The 1492 Behaim Globe is Portuguese

Welcome to 100 lies The God Culture teaches about the Philippines. Today's lie concerns Martin Behaim's 1492 Erdapfel globe. This map is very important to Timothy Jay Schwab's scheme to prove that the Philippines is Ophir. Tim tells a lot of lies about this map, willingly misinterprets it, and shows that he is not just clueless but an out and out liar. In the next few articles I will take a look at each lie individually. 



Martin Behaim was a German who worked in Portugal as a councillor for King John II. 

In 1484 Behaim moved to Portugal and set up residence in Lisbon. The circumstances behind this move are unclear but Lisbon was the hub of a wide-ranging trade network that included spices, slaves, and gold from Africa and it is likely that Behaim was looking for trading opportunities. He quickly found favor as a counselor in the court of King John II where he supposedly provided advice on navigation and astronomy.

After leaving the employ of Portugal he returned to Nuremberg where he convinced the town fathers to finance the creation of the world's first globe map. 

After Behaim returned to Nuremberg in 1490, leading members of the city council financed the construction of a terrestrial globe. Under the direction of Behaim, a team of artisans and craftsmen constructed what has become the oldest extant globe.

The completed globe, which came to be called Erdapfel (earth apple) by the townspeople, was originally housed in Nuremberg's city hall. In the 17th century the Behaim family took possession of the globe. It was inexpertly restored in 1823 and again in 1847, resulting in the corruption of many place-names and labels. The German National Museum in Nuremberg later took possession of the globe, which is commonly known as the Nuremberg Terrestrial Globe.

This map is 100% German. But Tim continues to insist it is Portuguese.

1:03:30 What can we say about Antilia? Well, it is a match to the ancient Thilis, a reference to the Philippines even on the 1492 Behaim globe commissioned by the Portuguese government.

32:09 Now we cover a map in 1492 where the Portuguese government commissioned a map with the latest data....

28:46 The Portuguese were already in the far wast controlling much of Malaysia and Indonesia and they released this map in 1492, the Behaim globe.

11:30 Because the very first globe of the world is also the one he had with him. Now this isn't real hard it's called the Behaim globe and it's based on Portuguese data commissioned by the Portuguese government as a Portuguese government map. Uh, a guy named Behaim, a German, actually, uh, you know, took care of the project, oversaw the project.

It is simply incredible that Tim continues to insist that this map is Portuguese when it absolutely is not. It is German and that is a historical fact. Did he do any research on the subject? If he did he is willingly ignoring it. This lie is important to note because Tim cannot get the most basic information correct. As we shall see he interprets the map wrong as well.
