Hermann Berghaus (1828 - 1890)
Berghaus was a German cartographer. For most of his working life he was a cartographer in the Geographical Institute of Justus Perthes at Gotha. His best known work is a chart of the world (1863) which went through at least 11 editions. He also prepared a Physikalische Wandkarte von Afrika (Physical wall map of Africa, 1881).
