This imagemap lets you link to other documents simply by clicking on any of the intuitively obvious images contained in the picture. Intuitively obvious of course, only if you have the same cultural understanding of the concepts associated with the images, and if you can see the picture at all. A blind user would have no way of navigating a document using an imagemap.
To provide an accessible alternative, you can either place a text menu nearby the imagemap, or create a link to a text-only page containing the links.
