Names that other countries have for this feature:
A mountain about 15 km south of Archer Point in Oates Land. On 16 January 1840, Lieutenant-Commandant Ringgold on the Porpoise, one of the ships of the USEE under Wilkes, reported a large, dark, rounded object resembling a mountain in this direction. The feature was plotted on Wilkes' chart in about 67 degrees S., 158 degrees E. It has not been possible to positively identify the feature names Ringgold's Knoll by Wilkes and the name has therefore been arbitarily applied to this feature.
