Narrative

Group of rocks lying near the head of Rymill Bay, close W of the mouth of Romulus Glacier and 3 mi NW of the highest summit of Black Thumb, off the W coast of Graham Land. First seen and roughly surveyed in 1936 by the BGLE under Rymill. Resurveyed in 1948-49 by the FIDS, and so named by them because of the association of these rocks with nearby Romulus and Remus Glaciers.
