Davis Ice Piedmont
Davis Ice Piedmont () is an ice piedmont about long and wide, located along the north side of Missen Ridge on the north coast of Victoria Land, Antarctica. The name "Cape Davis", after John E. Davis, Second Master of the "Terror", was given to a cape in the immediate area by Captain James C. Ross in 1841. Since no significant cape exists here, the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names and the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee have reapplied the name "
Hondius Inlet
Hondius Inlet (, ‘Zaliv Hondius’ \'za-liv 'hon-diy\) is the 5.7 km wide ice-filled inlet indenting for 6.7 km the tip of Joerg Peninsula, Bowman Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula southeast of Three Slice Nunatak. Its head is fed by Getman Ice Piedmont.
The feature is named after the Flemish cartographer Jodocus Hondius (Joost de Hondt, 1563-1612) whose 1595 map depicted the southern continent Terra Australis separated from both Tierra del Fuego and New Guinea.
