Matkah Point (63°58′S 58°19′W / 63.967°S 58.317°W) is the northern entrance point to Holluschickie Bay, on the west coast of James Ross Island. The name, recommended by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC), arose from association with Holluschickie Bay; Matkah was the mother of the white seal, Kotick, in Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book.
