Map of Gor (Emma's version)
There have been numerous versions made
to produce a map of Gor, and most of them can be found on the
Internet with a few searches. For the purpose of the sprawling Emma
of Gor trilogy ('trilogy' of course is soon to be a rather poor
description of the number of volumes once book 4 begins to be
serialised...) this is the map I use for my vision of Gor. It seems
to me to be the most detailed and the most attractive looking, and so
you can consider it an accurate and official map of Emma's world.
The distance across land is measured in
Gorean pasangs (see the scale at the bottom of the map), and just to
remind you, a pasang is equal to approximately 0.7 of an Earth mile.
My characters usually travel at a rate of maybe 60 pasangs a day if
mounted on a High Tharlarion.
Obviously enough this is simply a
single land mass/continent on the planet, and it's safe to assume
that it extends much further east, and there are no doubt other
unmapped land masses elsewhere.
The map was created by Necrella, posting as Gorean-Art on the Deviant Art site.

Yeah, this was the best map I could find. I tried to purchase the rights to it but never got a response so ended up commissioning our version - a representation of Samos' one.
ReplyDeleteIt is a really cool map (I have the one you published too). The first time I saw a map of Gor online, I was struck by how little of the planet it must represent, unless there's an awful lot of sea. I haven't read books 26 onwards so I'm not clued up on the world expansion that's been going on recently, but I'm guessing the world is a lot, lot bigger than just the western part of this continent...
ReplyDeletedear Emma, although this map is more detailed then most, here you have a link to one that is even more detailed. about 7 month of research of my sisterslave enya went in to it. comparing different quotes from different books, estamating distances based on spread out quotes by direction and form of transportation and by whom (a man will cover more distance by foot than a kajira for instance). all credits to enya for she did most research and created the map. i just double checked and was her sparringparnter, and research a small portion of the books . https://web.archive.org/web/20210618053411/https://korobankavernsmapofgor.webs.com/map-of-gor-2
