Lundbreen
Lundbreen
Glacier on archipelago of Svalbard
Lundbreen is a glacier in Nathorst Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It has a length of about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi), extending from Juvtinden to Kvitskarvbreen, beside the mountain of Langlifjellet. The glacier is named after the civil servant Egil Lund.[1][2]
From 300 AD to 1500 AD, Lundbreen was used as a mountain pass.[3] In the 2010s, artifacts from up to 2,000 years ago were found here, because of melting in the area. However, most of the items date from 300 to 1500 A.D.[4]
