I'm trying to learn more about what I have here. It appears to be two distinct works bound together:

• Photos 1 & 2: Fabularum Aesopicarum Delectus, published in Oxford (Oxoniae) in 1698

This one is interesting because it contains latin, green, hebrew, and arabic typefaces. I found a copy on abebooks, but it's bound with another unrelated volume (Phaedri Augusti Caesaris).

• Photos 3 & 4: Oikomenes periegesis, published in Oxford (Oxonii) in 1704

This one contains some fantastic maps of the ancient world. I found a copy on abebooks, but it contains 16 engraved maps, while my copy contains only 12, with signs that 4 were removed at some point.

Unfortunately, the condition isn't great. Both covers are completely detached, and it has ex libris markings (a bookplate from Church Missionary Society Library and a couple stamps on internal pages that are scratched out in ink).

I'd appreciate any insight into which editions these two works are (first, later reprints?), and any significance to them being bound together. Any thoughts on possible value, particularly given the condition (binding, missing maps, miscut title page), are welcome too. Thanks
