1947 Map of Ciales SO
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
The Rio Grande de Manati carves through a deeply dissected landscape where the boundaries of Ciales, Morovis, and Orocovis converge. This 1940s topography reveals a rural interior defined by its complex network of waterways, with the Rio Bauta and numerous quebradas—including Quebrada Manicaboa and Quebrada del Toro—dictating the placement of early roads and small settlements. The elevation peaks at prominent landmarks such as Cerro Cedro and Cerro El Gato, while community life centers around the Capilla del Carmen and the Escuela Segunda Unidad de Pesas. The sheer density of named creeks, such as Quebrada de la Mina and Quebrada San Lorenzo, illustrates the importance of water access for the mountain economy of the era before modern infrastructure reached these interior highlands.
