Detail from "Ancient Peloponnese, (1/10)" dry-point etching, 40 cm x 60 cm, Rives BFK printing paper (300 g/m), 2014 by Christine Olga Smith

Marked in this etching are the most important archeological sites in the Peloponnese.

During the late Middle Ages and the Ottoman era, the peninsula was known as the Morea (Greek: Μωρέας), a name still in colloquial use in its demotic form (Μωριάς)...)..Its etymology is disputed, but it is most commonly held to be derived from the mulberry tree (morea), whose leafs are similar in shape to the peninsula.[23]
