Tatul Island
Tatul Island is a triangular ice-free island off the north coast of Robert Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Extending 350 by, the island emerged as a distinct geographical entity following the retreat of Robert Island's ice cap in the late 20th and early 21st century. The feature is named after the settlement of Tatul adjacent to a major Thracian shrine complex in the Rhodope Mountains, Bulgaria related to the cult of Orpheus.
Location
The island is located 130 m north of Robert Island, 550 m south-southwest of Lientur Rocks and 950 m west-northwest of Newell Point. Bulgarian early mapping in 2009.
