# Kantatur

*Advent Map 8 - A nordic Island · 3k, Survival, Download: Java & Bedrock*

Kantatur is a realistic island... it's 3 km by 3 km made by McMeddon. It's an Island that is "originally shaped like the number eight" But hardly eroded and transformed in the creation process. A custom realistic world with rare amount of trees and little forests, its a rough snowy world with rocks and minimal vegetation. Due to its location it's nearly completely covered in snow, its massive mountains have gathered a lot of and let it flow all the down, covering half of the island in its porcess. Rivers have emerged that lead you all the way from coast to beak. It is a fun way to explore the world. Settle along the little rivers that come down the snowy mountains and set up a fire. Custom forests, rivers, sea´s, mountains, forestsand oceans await you.

## Questions about this world

### What is Kantatur?

Kantatur is a hand-made survival world of 3,072 × 3,072 blocks, made with WorldPainter, World Machine, Gaea, Axiom and WorldEdit, built for Minecraft Java 1.14. You download the world folder and play it like any other save, in singleplayer or on your own server.

### How big is Kantatur?

3,072 × 3,072 blocks, so about 9 million blocks of surface. Walking from one edge to the other takes roughly 12 minutes at normal walking speed. The terrain runs from Y 0 to Y 255.

Outside that area the world keeps generating normal vanilla Minecraft chunks, so you never hit a wall, you just leave the built part behind.

### Which Minecraft version does Kantatur need?

Kantatur is built for Minecraft Java **1.14**. Newer releases normally open it fine. Opening it in an *older* release is not supported: blocks and structures added after that version cannot load, and the world can be damaged by the attempt.

Bedrock players need a converted copy. See [the Bedrock notes in the FAQ](https://mcmeddon.com/faq#install-bedrock).

### Which biomes are in Kantatur?

6 in total. The land is mostly Plains (49.0%), Snowy Plains (48.5%) and Beach (2.4%), counted as shares of the land rather than of the whole map.

Water covers 68.1% of the map, and land 31.9%.

By volume this world's caves are Normal Caves (99.9%). The [cave breakdown](https://mcmeddon.com/worlds/20201203-kantatur#caves) has the rest.

The [full breakdown](https://mcmeddon.com/worlds/20201203-kantatur#biome-composition) is further up this page, with every biome and its share.

### Which structures are in Kantatur?

0 of the 19 structure types the scan checks are confirmed present: surface (0/7), underground (0/6), ocean (0/4), portal structures (0/1) and settlements (0/1).

Not confirmed: Desert pyramids (not checked), Igloos (not checked), Jungle pyramids (not checked), Pillager outposts (not checked), Swamp huts (not checked) and Trail ruins (not checked). "Searched, not found" means the scan looked and came up empty; "not checked" means it has not been looked for yet.

[The structure list](https://mcmeddon.com/worlds/20201203-kantatur#structure-coverage) above names every one of them.

### What does the scan confirm is in Kantatur?

A scan of the world file confirms ores and plants.

Not confirmed in this export: biomes, structures, animals, loot and caves. That means the scan did not find any, not that there are none.

The [world contents report](https://mcmeddon.com/worlds/20201203-kantatur#world-contents) at the bottom of this page holds the item-by-item detail.
