Its not what the map says. its the fact that they found it, and how they found it. Why are you reading this thread if you havnt seen it yet! You'll spoil it

We had this sitting in one of the magazines in the Hatch bathroom.
- The staff (Top Left)
The staff is where claire was held captive by the others, "Cerebus" is the mythical watchdog of hell. Its probly that smoke-monster. "AH" could be the Dharma financier, Alvar Hanso.. But who is MDG? and if Dharma abandoned this hatch in 85' does this mean the 'others' arnt affiliated with them?
-Middle Question Mark and dashed locations
Probly undiscovered hatches. the circle marked ? might mean the mapmaker was unsure these places existed. The notation near 'C3' suggests underground tunnels.
-Cv Rectangles
Could suggest electormagnetic energy or viewing stations.
-Magnus (Bottom right)
'Black rock' is a slave ship beached in the jungle, Magnus hanso must be linked to Alvar Hanso. but might be a reference to a book from 1965 titled magnus, about a man on an island who gets sucked into a godgame.
Very bottom right
Ursus Maritmus means 'Polar bear' .. Is dharma experimenting with animal adaptability? And if so.. why?
Questions
Who was the mapmaker?
Whats up with the math equations and the latin?
How can we be sure the map isnt some kind of Dharma mind game?
How much will Locke remmeber?
And what will he do for a chance to see it again?
