 Peak 15
The first detailed surveys of the Himalayan peaks by the Survey of India began in 1847, on the initative of the new Superintendant, Colonel Andrew Waugh.
The process of calculation lasted for a few years, because each datum obtained by topographers had to be stripped of the effects of the refraction of light and the excessive distance of the peak from survey stations.
In the meantime, Michael Hennessy, one of Colonel Waugh´s assistants, invented a new naming system for the Himalayan Mountains, identifying the most important peaks with Roman numerals: Kangchenjunga was thus renamed Peak IX, and Peak B became Peak XV.
