Till or glacial till is unsorted glacial sediment. Till is derived from the erosion and entrainment of material by the moving ice of a glacier. It is deposited some distance down-ice to form terminal, lateral, medial and ground moraines. Till is classified into primary deposits, laid down directly by glaciers, and secondary deposits, reworked by fluvial transport and other processes.
- The majority of soils in the [Georgia] depression are formed from glacial till, glacial outwash, and Lacustrine deposits.
- Most till consists predominantly of clay, silt, and sand, but with pebbles, cobbles, and boulders scattered through the till.

What I bring you today is a real gem that I have been searching for a long time and have finally managed to get my hands on a copy1. It is a collection of 672 maps found in the Great Korean Encyclopaedia2, North Korea’s reference encyclopaedia. More specifically, it is an electronic edition published on CD in the first decade of the 2000s.
