專家說明

'Monday Aug. 14th... This morning I went along the shore and collected a few small stones which I intend to take home' (Macklin, Endurance journal entry).

Dr. Macklin was one of two surgeons on Ernest Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Atlantic Expedition (or Endurance Expedition). He also joined Shackleton in 1921-22 on his last expedition on the Quest.
