Olfert Dapper (c. 1635 – 29 December 1689) was a Dutch physician and writer. He wrote a book on the history of Amsterdam. Later he also wrote about Africa, China, India, Persia, Georgia, and Arabia, although he had not visited these exotic destinations himself. In fact, he never travelled outside Holland. His books became well-known in his own time. Translations appeared in English, French, and German.
