Olphara Peninsula

The Olphara Peninsula was the long stretch of wild lands running north from the Olphara Mountains between the Sepik Sea and the Kokakal Sea.The Bonehunters, Chapter 18, US SFBC p.739 The explorer and map-maker Othun Dela Farat described it as difficult to cross, with badly folded, exposed bedrock pocked with lakes and only a few, mostly impassable rivers. Its forests were spruce, fir, and pine and its basins were filled with low-lying thickets. Dela found signs of an indigenous people, but was unable to make contact.The Bonehunters, Chapter 5, US SFBC p.189 The peninsula was the home of the Anibar people.
==In The Bonehunters==
Hanradi Khalag and elements of the Third Edur Imperial Fleet made landfall on the peninsula's coast and murdered and terrorised the Anibar tribes living there. The shaman, Boatfinder, recruited Karsa Orlong as the Anibar's protector and the Teblor tracked down the Tiste Edur killers and slew many of them. Ultimately, the Tiste Edur agreed to leave if Karsa came back to Letheras with them.The Bonehunters, Chapter 16
Icarium and Taralack Veed travelled to somewhere at or near the western coast of the Olphara Peninsula, where Tomad Sengar's portion of the Edur fleet took the Jhag as their champion.The Bonehunters, Chapter 9, US SFBC p.399-400The Bonehunters, Chapter 12, US SFBC p.494
As Admiral Nok's Malazan Imperial Fleet carried the 14th Army away from Seven Cities and across the Kokakal Sea, Nil and Nether noted the presence of the mountainous Olphara Peninsula to the west.
