USA Africa Dialogue Series - Original Fabric Map of Africa

Does anyone know who originally 

designed the African fabric map?

It was posted on this list some years ago

by one of us. Now it is being appropriated by

a South Asian researcher who boldly claims

that she created the African fabric map.

 I am trying to trace the original innovator. 

My suggestion for all is that for any

design/map/chart,  please insert your

name on the actual  design along with

the  copyright symbol, to preempt 

intellectual theft.
