Malamir Knoll

Malamir Knoll (Malamirova Mogila ma-la-'mi-ro-va mo-'gi-la) rises to 200 m in the southeast extremity of the Dryanovo Heights, Greenwich Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It has precipitous and ice-free southwest slopes and was named after the Bulgarian ruler Khan Malamir, 831-836 AD.

The knoll is located at 62°30′10″S 59°48′13″W, which is 2.37 km east of Tile Ridge, and 2.9 km northeast of Triangle Point, 2.65 km north-northwest of Spit Point and 3.78 km west by south of Labbé Point (Bulgarian topographic survey Tangra 2004/05 and mapping in 2005 and 2009).
