Page "Lykaion" Paragraph 1

According to some, the modern name of the mountain is Diaforti ( Gell gives " Dioforti " or " Dioforte "), which is presumed to consist of two Greek words: " Dias ", the name of Zeus in modern Greek, and " fero ," a verb meaning " I bring ," thus meaning that Mount Lykaion is a mountain that brings Zeus.

According to Kourouniotes, however, the southern peak has never been called Diaforti, only " Ayios Ilias " after the chapel of St. Elijah below the summit.

Cook distinguishes three summits, the highest Stephani, the next Ae Lias (= Ayios Elias ), and Diaphorti.
