Description
(see definition):
A small group of nunataks, including Tua Hill, lying 2.5 mi WNW of Brattskarvet Mountain in the Sverdrup Mountains of Queen Maud Land. The name "Bruns-Berge" after Herbert Bruns, electrical engineer with the expedition, was applied in this area by the German Antarctic Expedition (GerAE) (1938-39) under Alfred Ritscher. The correlation of the name with these nunataks may be arbitrary but is recommended for the sake of international uniformity and historical continuity.
