Context (Amendments / updates)
Z 46161.1-6 was previously identified as being from Naujan, possibly collected by Thomas Manning in 1936 or 1937. However they are all marked ‘E.C.’, referring to ‘Evalak’s Camp’, which corresponds to the entry under Moffet Inlet in Graham Rowley’s notebook (XA/1/39/4). The Place and Source fields have been updated accordingly.
