Promontories flanking the entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar were known in antiquity as the Pillars of Hercules. The pillar on the northern European side, Calpe Mons, is the Rock of Gibraltar. The North African peak is not predominant, and as such, the identity of Abila Mons has been disputed throughout history. The two most likely peaks are Monte Hacho in Ceuta and Jebel Musa in Morocco.
