Mediterranean Sea
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
The Mediterranean Sea was a sea located between Africa and Europe.
It was a landlocked and virtually tideless sea. (AUDIO: The Stealers from Saiph)
In 64 AD, Ian Chesterton was taken as a slave and placed on a slave ship travelling across the Mediterranean Sea, but it subsequently was damaged in rough seas and broke up, allowing him and another slave to escape. (TV: The Romans)
