Euxine

The large inland sea we call the Black Sea; originally called Axenos (Axine) by the Greeks and then later called Euxine (Pontos Euxinus).

The word Axenos literally means “an inhospitable place” but the name Euxine means “kind to strangers;” the Euxine is also called simply Pontus; approximately 178,000 square miles (461,018 square kilometers) in area.
