Dr. Aurel Krause (December 30, 1848 – March 14, 1908) was a German geographer known today for his early ethnography of the Tlingit Indians of southeast Alaska, published in 1885.[1]
Aurel Krause
Krause was born in Polnisch Konopath near Schwetz, West Prussia. He and his brother Dr. Arthur Krause were employed by the Geographical Society of Bremen in Germany when they conducted ethnological research in Siberia, followed by Aurel Krause's mostly solo research with the Tlingit of Klukwan, Alaska, in 1881 and 1882. His journey and published accounts were noted in the journals Nature and Science.[2][3]
Mount Krause, located 16 miles west-southwest of Haines, Alaska, is named after the Krause brothers and is the fifth highest peak in the Takhinsha Mountains with an elevation of 7027 ft (2141.83 m).[4][5] Aurel Glacier, named after Aurel Krause, descends from the western side of Mount Krause before heading northward to the Takhin River.[6]
