ok i will use the play or words differently. When the continental drift caused the piece of chunk (now we know as Indian sub-continent) from antartica merged into Asia and formed the Himalayan range, "Mt. Everest" was "founded" at that time. If you can determine that time, maybe you can name the highest mountain at that time
