From <http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd>:

<!ATTLIST map
  %i18n;
  %events;
  id          ID             #REQUIRED
  class       CDATA          #IMPLIED
  style       %StyleSheet;   #IMPLIED
  title       %Text;         #IMPLIED
  name        NMTOKEN        #IMPLIED

So the "id" attribute is required.
