About: Mount Lico

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Mount Lico is an inselberg mountain in the Alto Molocue District of Zambezia Province in northern Mozambique, most notable for its old-growth rainforest and its lack of penetration by humans. Mount Lico is approximately 1,100 metres (3,600 feet) above sea level but is distinctive in having sheer rock walls of up to 700 metres (2,300 feet) above the surrounding countryside that have all but prevented human intrusion. The forest on top, within a volcanic crater, covers only about 30 hectares (74 acres).

  • Mount Lico is an inselberg mountain in the Alto Molocue District of Zambezia Province in northern Mozambique, most notable for its old-growth rainforest and its lack of penetration by humans. Mount Lico is approximately 1,100 metres (3,600 feet) above sea level but is distinctive in having sheer rock walls of up to 700 metres (2,300 feet) above the surrounding countryside that have all but prevented human intrusion. The forest on top, within a volcanic crater, covers only about 30 hectares (74 acres). In 2012 Mt Lico was "discovered", or more correctly, identified as a place of special scientific interest, by Julian Bayliss of Oxford Brookes University, who had earlier similarly identified Mount Mabu some 70 kilometres (43 miles) southwest, by using Google Earth to search for significant landforms and vegetation features. In May 2018, Bayliss led a multidisciplinary expedition to scale the sheer walls of Mount Lico and begin the study of its unique habitat. Although it had been considered unlikely that humans would have entered the mountain's forest prior to this expedition, evidence of some limited human visitation was discovered in the form of several pots which had been placed, possibly for religious reasons, at the source of a stream on the mountain top.

  • Лико — гора-инзельберг в районе Альто-Молоку провинции Замбезия в северной части Мозамбика, известная своими девственными тропическими лесами на вершине. Высота горы примерно 1100 метров над уровнем моря. Наличие отвесных каменных стен высотой до 700 метров над окружающей местностью является естественной преградой для любого проникновения человека. Лес на вершине, внутри вулканического кратера, занимает площадь около 30 гектаров. Гора Лико с нетронутым участком леса на вершине представляет особый научный интерес. В 2012 году она была «открыта» из при помощи сервиса Google Планета Земля. Ранее аналогичным образом учёный «открыл» гору Мабу, расположенную в 70 километрах на юго-запад. В мае 2018 года команда учёных во главе с Бейлиссом отправилась в экспедицию на вершину горы для изучения её уникальной среды обитания. Было обнаружено несколько новых видов животных, в том числе новый вид чешуекрылых. Также были обнаружены несколько перевёрнутых горшков, которые были установлены у истока ручья на вершине горы, вероятно, по религиозным соображениям. (ru)
  • O Monte Lico é uma montanha inselberg no distrito de Alto Molócuè, na província da Zambézia, no norte de Moçambique, mais notável por sua floresta tropical primária e sua falta de penetração por seres humanos. O Monte Lico fica a aproximadamente 1.100 metros (3.600 pés) acima do nível do mar, mas distingue-se por possuir paredes de rocha de até 700 metros (2.300 pés) acima da paisagem circundante, que impediram quase toda a intrusão humana. A floresta no topo, dentro de uma cratera vulcânica, cobre uma área de apenas cerca de 30 hectares (0,12 milhas quadradas). Em 2012, o Monte Lico foi "descoberto", ou mais corretamente, identificado como um local de especial interesse científico, por Julian Bayliss da Universidade Oxford Brookes, que anteriormente identificara similarmente o Monte Mabu a cerca de 70 quilômetros (43 milhas) para o sudoeste, usando o Google Earth para procurar formas significativas de relevo e características da vegetação. Em maio de 2018, Bayliss liderou uma expedição multidisciplinar para escalar as paredes do monte Lico e começar o estudo de seu habitat único. Embora tenha sido considerado improvável que os seres humanos entrassem na floresta da montanha antes desta expedição, evidências de alguma visitação humana limitada foram descobertas na forma de vários vasos que foram colocados, possivelmente por razões religiosas, na fonte de um riacho na região no topo da montanha.
