I always read it as Cilento and wonder why it was named after Diane (one of Sean Connery's wives)

At least three distinct "Mediterranean" oregano varieties are sold here - Greek, Syrian (sometimes sold as za'atar thyme), and French. The first two are imported, I buy them in cellophane wrapped dried bunches; the third is always fresh with pink flowers and yellowish leaves - and hard to get.
Maybe there's a Spanish oregano
