Ivan Zavadsky
Born in 1780 near Hadyach in Poltava Oblast. He was a circumnavigator and polar explorer, cartographer, hydrographer, and collector of natural history collections. During 1819–1821, he served as deputy captain on the warship Vostok (Russian: Шкхид), which made a circumnavigation of the Southern Ocean in search of a route to the South Pole. This expedition was one of the first to discover Antarctica and the islands near it: the South Sandwich Islands, Alexander I, and Peter I. Since the days of Soviet historiography, Ivan Zavadovsky has been called a Russian, as has Lysyansky. Ivan Zavadovsky. Photo from open sources. One volcanic island was named in honor of Zavadovsky.
