According to tradition the name derives from Julius Cesar who assigned the mountain to the legionaries of the Roman colony, to use it mainly as a source of wood supply. A street in Castel San Giorgio is still today called Via degli Iuliani because it was used by the Julius' legionaries to go to the territory of the colony.

By virtue of its privileged exposure at noon, the mountain slopes are populated by small, typically family-owned agricultural plots. Among the cultivated vegetables there are fennel, cauliflower, broccoli, tomatoes, artichokes, endive, peppers, beans, aubergines, lettuce, potatoes, onions and garlic.
