What can be determined about an Earth-like planet, just by looking at a map?

I have a fictional map for an Earth-like planet, with Renaissance-era humanoid populations. Also, Luna, that is, the exact same moon that we had, pre-Space-Race, is orbiting the planet.
My map just has landmasses on it. No elevation markings, no forest markings, no desert markings... nothing but:
This place is land/ice (both look the same...), this place is sea.
What can I determine about my planet just from that map, if anything?
For example, could I tell where the poles/equator are?
