Seven Seas

Seven Seas

"The Seven Seas" is a figurative term for all the seas of the known world and has existed since antiquity. Its earliest known appearance is in a Sumerian hymn dated to approximately 2300 BC, and the phrase was subsequently adopted and frequently used by the ancient Greeks. The specific bodies of water referred to as the "Seven Seas" have varied significantly by era and culture, generally reflecting the maritime geography known to the inhabitants of a specific region at the time. The phrase is typically used in reference to sailors and pirates in the arts and popular culture, and can be associated with the Mediterranean Sea, the Arabian Seven Seas east of Africa and the Indian subcontinent, or is sometimes applied to the Caribbean Sea and seas around the Americas.
