据英国广播公司报道,南极遗产信托基金会在南极洲最古老的建筑里发现了一块有着百年历史的水果蛋糕。文物保护人员认为,它是英国探险家罗伯特•斯科特留下的。尽管装蛋糕的金属盒子已经生锈,但该团队说,蛋糕本身“状况良好”,并且闻起来还能吃。
A 100-year-old fruitcake believed to be from the Scott expedition has been found in a nearly "edible" state in the Antarctic.
南极洲上发现了一块几乎“还能食用”的100年以前的水果蛋糕,据信这是斯科特探险队留下的。
The cake, wrapped in paper and stored inside a rusted tin, was found in the Antarctic's oldest building, a hut on Cape Adare.
蛋糕被包在纸里,存储在一个生锈的铁罐中,在阿代尔角的一间小屋里被人发现。这间小屋是南极最古老的建筑。
It is believed to have been brought to the Antarctic by British explorer Robert Falcon Scott, during his Terra Nova expedition between 1910 and 1913.
据信,这是英国探险家罗伯特•福尔肯•斯科特在1910至1913年间在特拉诺瓦探险期间带到南极的。
The brand of the cake, Huntley& Palmers, was known to be a favorite of Scott, who successfully led his team to the South Pole in 1912 from the base hut.
1912年,斯科特成功带领其团队从这间基地小屋出发前往南极点。这块蛋糕是亨帕牌儿的,而众所周知这个牌子是斯科特的最爱。
It was found during a two-year conservation project by the Antarctic Heritage Trust, who said it "looked and smelt (almost) edible".
南极遗产信托基金会在开展为期两年的保护项目期间发现了蛋糕,据其称蛋糕“看起来和闻上去(几乎)都可以吃”。
"With just two weeks to go on the conservation of the Cape Adare artefacts, finding such a perfectly preserved fruitcake in amongst the last handful of unidentified and severely corroded tins was quite a surprise," Lizzie Meek, the programme manager for artefacts at the Trust, said.
“在阿代尔角文物保护项目即将结束的前两周,能在最后几个用途不明、严重锈蚀的罐头中找到这样一个保存完好的水果蛋糕让人格外惊喜,”该信托基金会文物项目经理莉齐•米克表示。
"It's an ideal high-energy food for Antarctic conditions, and is still a favorite item on modern trips to the Ice."
“在南极,水果蛋糕是理想的高能量食物,现在依然是南极之旅中最受欢迎的食品。”
The cake has been returned to the hut, along with other restored artefacts.
这块蛋糕已经连同其他修复好的文物一起被放回到小屋中。
Scott and all four members of his team died on their return journey from the South Pole to the base on the Terra Nova.
斯科特和团队四名成员全部在从南极点返回特拉诺瓦基地的途中去世。
