This application of Palmer Land is consistent with the 1964 agreement between the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names and UK-APC, in which the name "Antarctic Peninsula" was approved for the major peninsula of Antarctica, and the names [[Graham Land]] and Palmer Land for the northern and southern portions, respectively. The line dividing them is roughly 69 degrees south. | ||
