Coordinates edit

Henrick Tauber gives the coordinates of Ruin Island as 78° 50' N Lat, 69° 15' W Long (RADIOCARBON, VOL. 15, No. 1, 1973, P. 86-112)

However there is no island at that exact location. It looks as though Tauber rounded the coordinates to the nearest 5'.

On the other hand, http://www.ilapweb.info/?q=node/89 shows a picture of Ruin Island, which seems to match the island on google maps / satellite at 78.867894,-69.189861.

Do I leave the published location? WikiPeterD (talk) 04:36, 29 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
