Oates Land
Oates Land is a wedge-shaped segment of East Antarctica stretching along and inland from the Oates Coast. Part of the Australian claim to the Antarctic, it extends between 153°45' E and 160° E, forming a wedge between 60° S and the South Pole. It is bounded in the east by the Ross Dependency and overlaps in the west with George V Land.
