I definitely think that could be the case (catastrophe/flood). There's quite a bit of evidence supporting some kind of catastrophic "mud flood" scenario, but it's hard to pinpoint the timeframe or how widespread it was. I'm just having a hard time imagining a scenario where such a large landmass could move it so much in such a short period of time. It seems more likely that they just made up map details, cartographer sitting in his quarters the whole time with free license to invent an entire place so that they can go get some Mayan punini and get paid when they get home.
What theory? Look how small Hudson's Bay is with some appendage called Buttons Bay. This is so stupid. First, do you know that map makers combine maps? How do you know where the source info came from. The accuracy of maps are obviously not to be considered true -especially from 1600 for fuck sakes.
