The International Prester John Project: How A Global Legend Was Created Across Six Centuries

The Antient and Present State of Muscovy

Written by Jodocus Crull (1660-1713) and published in 1698, The Antient and Present State of Muscovy follows the argument of Philippe Avril, which suggests that Prester John and the Dalai Lama are the same personage. As Brewer (p. 296) notes, the main difference here is that Crull has a more negative attitude towards the Tibetans.
