The Great Sea — western boundary of the Promised Land
MediterraneanHistorically Verified
Underwater archaeology has uncovered ancient shipwrecks and harbors all across it. Probably the most documented body of water in ancient history.
Called the Great Sea in the Old Testament (Numbers 34:6-7). Jonah sailed across it fleeing God (Jonah 1). Paul was shipwrecked on it near Malta (Acts 27). Tyre and Sidon were major ports on its eastern coast.
