The dotten ( Norwegian for lump ) is a nunatak in Queen Maud Land in East Antarctica . In the Sør Rondane mountains, it rises 3 km north of the Smalegga Ridge near the mouth of the Gillockbreen .
Norwegian cartographers, who also gave it its descriptive name, mapped it in 1957 using aerial photographs taken during the US Operation Highjump (1946–1947).
