Early European navigational maps of the Bay of Bengal, such as Thomas Bowrey's of 1687 and George Herron's of 1690, do not show Calcutta or the fishing village of Kolikata, but they do show neighboring Satanuti (Chuttanuty/Soota Loota), a weavers' village, on the eastern bank of the Hugli, and Gobindapur (Govindpore).
