Fue descubierto por la Expedición Antártica Francesa de 1908-1910, al mando del Dr. Charcot, quien le dio el nombre por el apellido del almirante Bellue, Superintendente de los Astilleros de Cherburgo, Francia, donde se construyó la nave "Pourquoi-Pas". En algunas cartas chilenas de 1947, figuró erróneamente este accidente como cabo Evenson, apareciendo como cabo Bellue una punta que está a 9 millas al SE y que en las cartas de EE.UU. de N.A. figura como Phantom Point. Cabo que forma el lado N de la entrada a la bahía Marín Darbel, en la costa occidental de la península Tierra de O'Higgins. |

| Ringgold Knoll (AUS) | 69° 18' 32.9" S | 157° 35' 56.3" E | Knoll |
|
Name ID: 1144
Place ID: 12162
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. |
