Cosmus von Simmern (1581-1650) from Kolberg began with the writing of the "Historical, genealogical Cosmography" (Historische, genealogische Cosmographia) around 1605, which was extended again and again until 1646. Of the original 14 folios, only parts dealing with Brandenburg, Pomerania and Mecklenburg have survived.
