In times long past, the young Kalifront tended the sheep of his father, who was Barbat's friend - Barbat was the lord of the eastern part of the island. Today's town of Barbat bears this name. While Draga grew into a young girl, she also looked after her father's sheep. Kalifront fell head over heels in love with the girl and as the passion gripped him, he finally gave in to his desire for love. The girl warned him, saying she wasn't allowed to because her mother had vowed her purity to the goddess Diana. Draga had to flee and Kalifront ran after her. He caught up with the girl in front of the Loparska Jamina cave. She screamed and begged Diana to help her. Diana heard her cry for help and froze her into a stone figure. The gods punished Kalifront and did not let him rest until the spring in the cave dried up - he had to live on forest fruits and plant trees until the end of his life. As the forest became denser, his fur grew ever thicker and he looked more like an animal than a human. In the end it looked like his forest.
This is how today's largest forest complex on the island and the peninsula received the name - "Kalifront".
