Etymology
The mountain was named "Roma" by its discoverer and explorer, Father Alberto María de Agostini.History
After the signing of the Boundary Treaty of 1881 between [Chile and Argentina|1881 Treaty between Argentina and Chile], the border in the area was defined in 1898 by demarcation experts, Francisco Pascasio Moreno from Argentina and Diego Barros Arana from Chile. The Huemul was declared a boundary marker. The experts had no disagreements between Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Stokes, unlike other territories that were submitted to arbitration in the 1902 [Arbitral award of the Andes between Argentina and Chile|1902 award]. The boundary was defined over the following mountain markers and their natural continuity: Fitz Roy, Torre, Huemul, Campana (Patagonia)|Campana], Agassiz, Heim, Mayo (Patagonia)|Mayo], and Stokes.In 1998, the "Agreement between the Republic of Chile and the Republic of Argentina to define the boundary between Monte Fitz-Roy and Cerro Daudet" was signed, establishing Section A and part of Section B, leaving the area between Fitz Roy and Murallón pending.
