Hunter Style Din Din or whatever

I always wondered why chicken cacciatore was called chicken cacciatore.  

Cacciatore means "hunter" in Italian.  So, the dish translates to "chicken hunter-style."  I thought cooking it would help me understand the meaning of the name, but it didn't help at all.  All I know is that, my Bandie Wandie enjoyed this dish!
