The Deljo Glacier ( Bulgarian Дельов ледник Deljow lednik ) is an 8 km long and 2.7 km wide glacier in the west Antarctic Ellsworthland . In the north-central part of the Sentinel Range in the Ellsworth Mountains, it flows northwest of the Rumjana and south of the Burdenis glacier from the northern slopes of Mount Giovinetto and the eastern slopes of Mount Viet in a north-easterly direction together with the Burdenis and Gerila glaciers to the upper section of the Ellen -Glacier , which it reaches north of the Bruguière Peak .
American scientists mapped it in 1961 and 1988. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2014 after the rebel leader Deljo Wojwoda in the late 17th and early 18th centuries .
