In order to distinguish the two areas which were physically separated by the foothills of the uplands in the Leine valley, Calenberg in the north was usually referred to as Unterwald ("Lower Forest"), whilst the Göttingen region was called the Oberwald ("Upper Forest").
Et eristada kahte ala, mis olid füüsiliselt eraldatud Leine oru kõrgustikega, kutsuti Calenbergi põhjas tavaliselt Unterwald ("Alam-Mets"), samas kui Göttingeni ala kutsuti Oberwald ("Ülem-Mets").
