# Carl Hermann Credner

> Carl Hermann Georg Credner was a German earth scientist and the son of Carl Friedrich Heinrich Credner. He examined the geology of Saxony and was influential in establishing Saxon geology through pioneering maps and a textbook. Credner Glacier on Mount Kilimanjaro is named after him. Geographers named Credner moraine on Spitsbergen, Credner moraine Mountains in Papua New Guinea, and Credner Waterfall in Togo after him. A manganese copper ore was, however, named after his father as crednerite while a fossil genus Credneria is named after his uncle Carl August Credner.
