 Untrue claim about ADRIAAN RELAND in section 3.2.1 Travelers' impressions of 19th century Palestine 

In section 3.2.1 it is claimed that the Dutch scolar Adriaan Reland visitet Palestine in 1695.

This is false. 
Reland never visitet Palestine.

The source (196. RELANDI HADRIANI Palaestina ex monumentis veteribus illustrata. Trajecti Batavorum, Guilielmi, 1714., pages 648-649) for this claim does not say anything about a travel by Reland to Palestine.

There exists no facts about such a travel.

The biographies about Reland does not mention any travels by Reland to Palesine.

The english Wikipedia biographic page about Reland claim:

""Although he never ventured beyond the borders of Netherland, he was also acclaimed as a cartographer[4]""
