I love reading about the history of Cartography like those used on papyrus by the Greeks.
Im dont really know anything about it. What is it?
Cartography or mapmaking has been an integral part of human history for thousands of years. 
oh right so it the proper name for mapreading? It is definitely a skill in itself.  Are you any good at it?
It is a proper noun in its primary application when referring to a unique entity like cartography.
