The Illyrians used to call the city Zaptal?

The statement to the effect hat "The Illyrians used to call the city Zaptal" should be removed. There is absolutely no evidence of such an Illyrian name. Sir William Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography does say "Illyric: Zaptal", but this comes right after Ragusa-Vecchia and so it's probably a reference to a modern name, thus a typo for Zaptat, an early spelling of Cavtat. By "Illyric", Smith probably means either the Dalmatian language or an early form of Serbo-Croatian. In any case, this statement by Smith is not supported by any other evidence.

Agreed. A simple google books search for the terms "zaptal" and "cavtat" gives no actual references, so this is dubious at best.

JFTR the reference was: Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography: Abacaenum-Hytanis. 1854 by Sir William Smith (p. 840)
