Georgia Map Office


		We are looking for the other Georgia. At a time when much of the state is being developed to accommodate the growth of the largest city in the southeast, we are looking for meaning in the land and in what we have built upon it. When the state's geographical culture is being redefined and when the new is beginning to outnumber the old, we are looking for "the spirit of place," the spirit that persists, in spite of great change. We begin this undertaking convinced that the root act of culture is orientation, and that a meaningful orientation is vital for all that follows. And we believe, like Chatwin's Aboriginals, that "an unsung land is a dead land."
