Province Map

[Ituralde]

I think those white things with vertical bars are the cities, or at least the settlements. No idea which one of them is the provincial capital, though. The other icons look like the special resources that can be traded.

I think he was also referring to those temple like icons to represent cities, while the white bar stuff is mostly seen in Egypt and probably shows the armies with the white bar being the movement points. I also wonder what the icon in the middle of Italy is. Maybe an agent of some sort. It's the only place the icon shows up on the map.

Just curious, which icon do you think represents pottery?

I'm guessing the weirdly shaped icons in western Provincia, eastern Cartaginesis, southern Italia, and northwest Nabataea are olives. Not sure what sort of in-game bonuses they would offer.

A little surprised to not see any grain this time around.

That funny looking icon you mentioned in Silesia and Thracia is also in northern Aria and eastern Arabia Felix. I have no idea what it could be, but based on it's broad distribution, I doubt it's a plant of any sort.

I think the red icons are wine.

I took the red amphores to be pottery. They could be wine as well. Though I would have expected them to show the grapes then. Either way olives sounds good for those plant thingies.

Maybe the brown icon is a flat dish of some sort to mean pottery or clay?
