Barnard Point : ウィキペディア英語版 | Barnard Point
Barnard Point is a headland which marks the south-east side of the entrance to False Bay on the south side of Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It is situated on Rozhen Peninsula, north-north-west of Botev Point and south-east of Miers Bluff (British mapping in 1968, and Bulgarian in 2005 and 2009). ==History== The point was known to sealers as early as 1822. The name was applied about a century later, probably after Mount Barnard (now Mount Friesland) which surmounts it to the north-east. Charles H. Barnard, captain of the ship ''Charity'' of New York, was a sealer in the South Shetlands in 1820–21.〔Stackpole, E. 1955.
