Ptolemy's own maps have not survived. There are, nonetheless, a variety of medieval and modern reconstructions. Wikipedia has a number of these which are zoomable, but not particularly clear. [See, for example Asia Minor. Wikipedia's main page for its collection of maps for Ptolemy's Geography is here.] Perhaps the best for Greater Armenia and the Caucasus is S. T. Eremyan's reconstruction. Reconstructions by Heinrich Kiepert and others are available on our Maps Page.
