Map of the state of Tolima, Colombia (1864)

This map was created by Colombian cartographers Manuel María Paz and Manuel Ponce de León in 1864 and published in 1865 in the Atlas of the United States of Colombia. The map depicts the state of Tolima during the period of the United States of Colombia and before the territorial reform that divided Colombia into departments in 1905.

The former department of Tolima bordered the department of Cauca to the south and west, the department of Antioquia to the north, and the department of Cundinamarca to the east. The capital was located in the city of Ibagué.
