Роэлин Джордж Гордон-Камминг (Гордон-Кумминг) (англ. Roualeyn George Gordon-Cumming; 1820—1866) — шотландский охотник и путешественник по Африке.

Биография

Родился 15 марта 1820 года в богатой семье сэра Уильяма Гордона Гордон-Камминга, 2-го баронета[англ.] и его жены — Элизы Марии Гордон-Камминг. Его дедушка — Александр Пенроуз Гордон-Камминг, 1-й баронет[англ.] — был шотландским политиком, членом парламента.

Служил в Капской колонии. Охотничьи трофеи Камминга выставлялись на Всемирной выставке 1851 года в Англии и хранятся в музее в форте Августа[англ.] (Шотландия).

Описание путешествий Камминга, важное для изучения жизни животных Южной Африки, было издано под названием «Five years of a hunter’s life in the far interior of South Africa» (6 изд., Лондон, 1870). Оно содержало для своего времени много интересных наблюдений над образом жизни южноафриканских животных.

Умер 24 марта 1866 года.
