Newman Nunataks (66°40′S 54°45′E / 66.667°S 54.750°E / -66.667; 54.750)

These are a group of nunataks about 19 km west of Aker Peaks, and 26 km west of Mount Elkins, in Enderby Land, Antarctica. Their position was plotted from air photographs taken by ANARE in 1956 and 1960. They were named after A.J. Newman, senior diesel mechanic at Mawson Station in 1961.
