NOTE

1.  The marked location is clearly what Nowicki [2014] shows in Fig. 45 on p. 82.  And yet the elevations do not match.  Nowicki [2014] 81 says that the hill is '... about 35 m asl, ... ' but this hill is only about 11 m. asl on average.  Perhaps Nowicki intended the next hill just to the S, at 35.26053 N, 26.264546 E, which does average 35 m in elevation. Nonetheless, and based on the photo, I have marked it as 'E'.
