Names that other countries have for this feature:
Two prominent sea stacks on the S side of New Plymouth between Astor and Rugged Islands, in the South Shetland Islands. The name "Monuments" was applied by Robert Fildes in 1820-22, but has been rejected in order to avoid duplication with other existing Monument names. Stewart Stacks, given by the UK-APC in 1958, is for Hampton Stewart of the American sealer Jane Maria from New York, who according to the New York Gazette and General Advertiser of May 16, 1821, made one of the first charts (now lost) of the South Shetland Islands in 1820-21.
