From Library of Congress: Shows Egypt (before Sudan Campaign 1821), Greater or Ottoman Syria (circled by a line refering to Aenaze Beduin Tribe), Akka and Tarablus as administrative units (Ottoman Eyalat), may suggest the map was drawn about the time of the Turco-Egyptian Conflict over control of Arab Greater Syria, which developed to the Egyptian-Ottoman War, 1831-1833, or after.
