Sea of Marmara

The Sea of Marmara ((トルコ語:Marmara Denizi), ), also known as the Sea of Marmora or the Marmara Sea, and in the context of classical antiquity as the Propontis ((ギリシア語:Προποντίς)), is the inland sea, entirely within the borders of Turkey, that connects the Black Sea to the Aegean Sea, thus separating Turkey's Asian and European parts. The Bosphorus strait connects it to the Black Sea and the Dardanelles strait to the Aegean. The former also separates Istanbul into its Asian and European sides. The sea has an area of 11,350 km² (280 km x 80 km)〔(Sea of Marmara )〕 with the greatest depth reaching .
==Name==
The sea takes its name from the island of Marmara, which is rich in sources of marble, from the Greek ''μάρμαρον'' (''marmaron''), "marble".
The sea's ancient Greek name ''Propontis'' derives from ''pro-'' (before) and ''pontos'' (sea), deriving from the fact that the Greeks sailed through it to reach the Black Sea, ''Pontos''. In Greek mythology, a storm on Propontis brought the Argonauts back to an island they had left, precipitating a battle where either Jason or Heracles killed King Cyzicus, who mistook them for his Pelasgian enemies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Greek Mythology Link )
