Gawa Ibn Edwas of Solclaim created a big map of Dereth with mansions, villas, cottages, dungeons, towns, lifestones and more labelled on it. This was a 6123x6123 image meant for printing 3'x3'. It looks like he also split this up into 9 and 16 pieces, for easier printing. He last updated his map on 2006-08-06. It is available at http://www.warcry.com/codex/ac/game_info/dereth_maps/.

I'm working to create an updated version of a big map of Dereth. The hard part is placing the labels so they don't overlap each other, followed simply by verifying the data to make sure it is accurate.
