Carl Lumholtz [1851, Lillehammer – 1922, New York] is<br />
considered one of the great explorers from the last decades<br />
of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th<br />
century. For almost 40 years he explored the jungles and<br />
desert regions of Australia, Mexico and Borneo, and he<br />
was internationally recognized as a naturalist, ethnographer,<br />

a company commander in the infantry. In 1869, he became<br />
