Premise: Cape Vakop ( ) is a headland between Hound Bay and Luisa Bay on the north coast of South Georgia. It was charted by the Second German Antarctic Expedition, 1911–12, under Wilhelm Filchner. The name appears on a chart based upon surveys of South Georgia in 1926–30 by DI personnel, but may represent an earlier naming.
Hypothesis: It is uncertain when Cape Vakop's name was coined
