Abstract

The history of geological cartography of the present territory of Lithuania starts with a map published by Jean Etienne Guettard in 1764 and followed by maps by Stanisław Staszic in 1806, Ignacy Domeyko in 1837, and Frederic Dubois de Montpereaux in 1830. A new period of investigations and compilation of geological maps starts about 1840 and is closely related with the development of stratigraphic knowledge; therefore, this period marks the beginning of mapping using the stratigraphic concept (Helmersen 1841). The Geological Committee in St. Petersburg, founded in 1882, at the very beginning of its activities started the compilation of a geological map including the present territory of Lithuania. The works of Antony Karol Giedroyc (Antanas Karolis Giedraitis) were published in 1895 (Giedroyc 1895), and the volume included a map which displays the occurrences of Quaternary and Pre-Quaternary (Tertiary, Cretaceous, and Jurassic) sediments and rocks. The map is constructed on the basis of direct observations and descriptions of outcrops and exposures of Quaternary sediments and Pre-Quaternary rocks carried out by the author, also based on evidence by local people. The main occurrences (provinces) of Pre-Quaternary rocks mapped by Giedroyc are confirmed by the modern geological mapping of the 20th century; therefore, the map of Giedroyc (1895) is regarded as a pioneering work of modern geological mapping using international stratigraphic standards.

在19世纪地质制图的背景下，安东尼·卡罗尔·吉德罗伊克绘制的立陶宛领土地质图

立陶宛目前领土的地质制图历史始于1764年Jean Etienne Guettard出版的地图，随后是Stanisław Staszic(1806年)，Ignacy Domeyko(1837年)和Frederic Dubois de Montpereaux(1830年)的地图。1840年前后，与地层学知识的发展密切相关，开始了一个新的地质测绘时期;因此，这一时期标志着使用地层学概念进行制图的开始(Helmersen 1841)。圣彼得堡地质委员会成立于1882年，在其活动之初就开始编制包括立陶宛现在领土在内的地质图。安东尼·卡罗尔·吉德罗伊(Antanas Karolis Giedraitis)的作品出版于1895年(Giedroyc 1895)，其中包括一张显示第四纪和前第四纪(第三纪、白垩纪和侏罗纪)沉积物和岩石的分布图。该地图是根据作者对第四纪沉积物和前第四纪岩石的露头和暴露进行的直接观察和描述，并根据当地居民提供的证据绘制的。20世纪现代地质填图证实了geedroyc测得的前第四纪岩石的主要产状(省);因此，Giedroyc地图(1895年)被认为是使用国际地层标准进行现代地质制图的开创性工作。

期刊介绍： BALTICA is an international periodical journal on Earth sciences devoted to the Baltic countries region and the Baltic Sea problems. This edition as a Yearbook is established in 1961 by initiative of Academician Vytautas Gudelis. Since 1993, an Editor-in-Chief of the journal became Academician Algimantas Grigelis. BALTICA is published biannually (in June and December) in cooperation with geoscientists of the circum-Baltic States. BALTICA is publishing original peer-reviewed papers of international interests on various Earth sciences issues. The particular emphasis is given to Quaternary geology, climate changes and development of ecosystems, palaeogeography, environmental geology, as well as stratigraphy, tectonics, sedimentology and surface processes with relevance to the geological history of the Baltic Sea and land areas. Journal emphasizes modern techniques, methodology and standards. The journal structure comprises original articles, short reviews, information, bibliography.
