[edit] Aztec Mountain

'''Aztec Mountain''' ({{coor dm|77|48|S|160|31|E|}}) is a small pyramidal [[mountain]] over 2,000 m, just southwest of [[Maya Mountain]] and west of [[Beacon Valley]] in [[Victoria Land]]. So named by the [[New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition]] (NZGSAE) (1958-59) because its shape resembles the pyramidal ceremonial platforms used by the Aztec and Maya civilizations.

'''Azure Cove''' ({{coor dm|65|4|S|63|35|W|}}) is a [[cove]] 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) long, lying just east of [[Cangrejo Cove]] in the southwest part of [[Flandres Bay]], on the west coast of [[Graham Land]]. Discovered by the [[Belgian Antarctic Expedition]] under Gerlache (1897-99) and named "Baie d'Azur" because when the Belgica anchored near here, everything appeared to be colored blue in the evening light.
