The correct term is Monte Albán. It is the name of an archaeological site near Oaxaca, in Mexico. It was called by the Mexicans as Ocelotepec or is Cerro del Jaguar (which in Zapoteco is Dani Beedxe) and by the Yucucúi Mixtecs that means Cerro Verde. The name Monte Albán was given by the Spanish conquistadors.
