Swapped names, или Стшелецкий не ошибся[править код]

En-wiki: In 1840...an exploration party led by Paul Edmund Strzelecki and James Macarthur with indigenous guides Charlie Tarra and Jackey set off...The peak currently called Mt Townsend was reached...Here Strzelecki noticed that the neighbouring peak was higher...he named the higher summit Mt Kosciusko...[later,] Strzelecki alone climbed the Kosciuszko summit. A cartographical mistake made in an edition of Victorian maps transposed Mt Kosciusko to the position of the present Mt Townsend. The confusion was straightened out in 1940...study reaffirmed that the mountain named by Strzelecki as Mt Kosciuszko was indeed...Australia’s highest summit. [So the "swap" was the correction of an error in the Victorian maps].

Although lower than Mount Kosciuszko, Mount Townsend [3.68 kilometres (2.29 mi) north of Mount Kosciuszko] has a more craggy peak and is arguably more dominant than the relatively round-topped Mount Kosciuszko.

There are several native Aboriginal names associated with Mt Townsend...These are Jagungal, Jar-gan-gil, Tar-gan-gil, Tackingal; however, all of them mean Bogong Moth...

According to A.E.J. Andrews, Mt Kosciuszko had no indigenous name. — Эта реплика добавлена с IP 31.130.81.195 (о) 16:48, 3 января 2020 (UTC)[ответить]
