Re: And I thought...

the only common thing is the meaning of the name (meeting point of something):
- meeting point of the borders of the earldoms of Goerz, Tyrol and the bishop of Salzburg (PiCCo....);
- border point where the 3 "signorie" : Venice (now Bergamo province), Milan (now Lecco province) and Grigioni (now Sondrio province) met (PiZZo.....)

Re: And I thought...

Thanks for the explanation - in fact I saw that it was a different mountain from the start. With your explanation you explained the German name Dreiherrenspitze to me! To me it always meant something like "three men" not three (over)lords. Funny, that I immediately knew what tre signorie meant...
