Who was Pierre Jacotin?
Pierre Jacotin was named director of all the surveyors and geographers working in the Nile Valley in 1799 during the campaign in Egypt of Napoleon. After his return from Egypt, Jacotin worked on preparing the plates for publication, but in 1808 Napoleon formally forbade publication of any map of the country. It was not until the Restoration that the engraved plates could be utilized.
