7. Einds from Cape Borlase Warren (74° 18' lat. I.) and 

 Sabine Island (7445' lat. I.), Iforth East G-reenland. 



Between 4 and 5 degrees of latitude further towards the 

 north, about fifty miles north of the mouth of Franz Joseph's 

 fjord the Expedition landed at two points and made excavations 

 with the object of searching for Eskimo remains. In both 

 these places earlier expeditions had landed previously. 



Clavering discovered and gave the name to Cape Borlase 

 Warren, which lies at the extreme point of a peninsula north 

 of Clavering Island. Also in his time (1823) traces of the 

 natives were found ; stone chambers built up of stones were 

 found everywhere along the coast, containing blubber, and 

 several old graves were opened. — The members of the second 

 German North Pole Expedition ^) camped twice at this spot and 

 likewise found numerous traces of the previous Eskimo popu- 

 lation. Besides the graves opened by Clavering, they found 

 further to the west an unopened grave, the interior of which 

 was found to have been divided into two chambers by means 

 of a little partition. Among the rocks here there was also 

 found the half of a kaiak paddle. — In this spot Lieutenant 

 Amdrup^) made quite a short landing, during which he was 

 fortunate enough to find some few Eskimo objects; a number 

 of these are connected with the Eskimo's dog-sledges. 



Only a few miles further to the north lay Sabine Island, 

 where the Expedition made a similar landing after having made 



') Koldewey 607—608.
