Vietor Rock

Vietor Rock is a rock linked by a spit to Nikopol Point on the south coast of Byers Peninsula, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers operating on Byers Peninsula.

The feature is named after Alexander O. Vietor, Curator of Maps, Yale University Library, who discovered the original logbooks of the American sealing vessels Hersilia, 1819–20, and Huron, 1820–21.
