Answer:

D) Atlas

Step-by-step explanation:

An atlas is a book of maps. It generally contains a collection of maps of the Earth, or of particular regions of it. Atlases present geographic features as well as political boundaries. Some might also present geopolitical, social, religious and economic statistics. Because this is a collection of various types of maps, this is most likely the reference work where you would find a map of Europe in the Middle Ages.

The answer is: D) Atlas.

An atlas is a book of maps or charts, which existed in the Middle Ages. As a result, it might have contained a map of Europe in those times.

The rest of the choices are incorrect because an almanac possesses dates and astronomical data, a thesaurus has synonyms and antonyms of words, and an encyclopedia is a book with information on several subjects, usually in alphabetical order.
