Well built (walru.s (lower jaw)). 



Well built. On the ridge of the Naze. 



Кар Steensby (lat. 76° 55', long. 18° 15'). Here 8 tent-rings and 

 2 — 3 temporary meat-stores were found. 



The tenting ground was found close to the south of Кар 

 Steensby, which is the only promontory on the east coast of Ger- 

 mania Land. The cliffs jut out from the heights behind the low 

 fore-land, which is here not broad, but narrow, flat and gravelly 

 with some stones. The screw-ice goes close into the Cape and 

 the currents often make openings in the ice off here especially 

 in spring. Both in April 1907 and in March 1908 there were 

 openings here of wide extent, whilst the greater part of the sea 

 at other places along the coast was still filled with impassable 

 screw-ice. 



On a broader, but little prominent point there were 7 tenl-rings 

 about 3 meters above the sea, quite near to the beach, with good 

 shelter from northerly winds. A couple of temporary meat-stores 

 were also found here (57). 



The 6 tent-rings (58) lay together, the seventh (59) about 30 

 meters more to the south. They were all of oval form, the most 

 southern 320 M. long and 2*40 M. broad. Of the other 6 rings, the 

 smallest was 280 M. long and 240 M. broad, the largest 320 M. long 

 and 280 M. broad. Broken, cast antlers of reindeer were found round 

 about. (According to information from Johansen). 



In June 1908 all these tent-rings were covered with snow and 

 1 only found one oval ring (60), which was Г90 M. long in east 

 to west direction and 230 M. broad along the platform-edge from 

 north to south. From the back wall to the platform-edge the 

 distance was 085 M. The door opening was 048 M. broad and 

 looked towards the east. The floor-place was composed of sharp 

 pointed beach-stones and the platform was not speciallj' level. Мап}^ 

 tracks of bear led along the coast and there was much open water 

 off the tent-ring. 



Hunting ground north of Syttenkilometernæsset (lat. 76° 



51', long. 18' 20'). A tent-ring, a couple of traps and 11 large, 



permanent meat-depots were found on the shore about 4 kilometers 



north of Syttenkilometernæsset. The shore was fairly steep here, 



•with extensive stretches of gravel and pebbles.
