In this excellently written paper the author investigates a new distribution (stratification) of Clifford-Klein manifolds in hyperbolic space \(H13\). For that he considers a 5-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space \(H35\) of index three with the Grassmann manifold \(G31,4\) (the absolutum of the space \(H35\)) realized as quadratic hypersurface immersed in \(H35\) and studies the bijective Klein-map between the lines of \(H13\) and the points of \(G31,4\) contained in \(H35\). Using exterior forms and convenient \(K\)-frames, the author considers general Clifford distributions, general normal distibutions and finally Clifford \(N\)-distributions and develops the geometrical properties of the \(K\)-manifolds in these distributions. The relations between Gauß, mean and Lipschitz-Killing curvatures are given and play an important role. Reviewer's remark: The expression ``Wiengarten-surface'' is a mistake; the author obviously means ``Weingarten-surface''!
