the Greeks lived on the Mediterranean Sea... so I would say that one. They knew of the Black sea and the Caspian sea; and the ancient Greeks believed the Atlantic Ocean to be a world encompassing sea.
Most of the main Greek ports were located on the southern or eastern costs of Greece, mainly because of the topography of the country. Additionally, prevailing winds would come from the north or northwest most of the time, making travel across the Aegean easier than travel across the Ionian (the sea that borders the western side).
Also, historically, the seat of civilization was in Mesopotamia, in the east, meaning that as culture traveled north along the Rivers Euphrates and Tigris, then into the Mediterranean, the Greeks would have had much more in the way of lucrative trade and alliances to the East rather than to the west.
Because the land was very mountainous and hard to travel. So the sea was used as a way of communication, food and trade.
Because Poseidon was their god of the sea and many more, and Poseidon is one of the Big Three.
they settled on the town and sailed the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Black Seas to trade their olive oil and wool.
They relied on them for fish as a major source of food, for long distance transportation, for trade, and for maritime warfare.
It was the highway used to spread their cities around it.
i donβt know
There are about four different seas not oceans around Greece. These seas are, the Aegean Sea, Sea of Crete, Mediterranean Sea, and the Ionian Sea. Visit the link below for an example of a map. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/xpeditions/atlas/index.html?Parent=europe&Rootmap=greece&Mode=b
That was where their food came from and the main way they traveled.
Because he was the god of the sea and could create storms or calm. He was also the originator of earthquakes. The Greeks were a seafaring people so the god of the sea was important.
The Sea Peoples moved through the Eastern Mediterranean and the Mycenaean Greek civilisation collapsed, replaced by the Ionians and Dorian peoples who dominated Greece as it moved from this Dark Age into developing civilisation led by Ionian Athens and Dorian Sparta respectively.The Achaean Greeks returned home with their loot, and were faced with their own invaders - the Sea Peoples and the Dorian Greeks.

The Ionian Sea.
The Aegean Sea is the body of water between Troy and Ithaca, and it is important to the Greeks because it is where Greek civilization first began. The Ionian Sea is to the west of the Aegean Sea, and it is important to the Greeks because it was the site of the Trojan War. The Mediterranean Sea is to the south of the Aegean Sea, and it is important to the Greeks because it is the sea that links the Greek world to the rest of the world.
The answer is Syracuse
the Balkan peninsula (where the early Greeks settled around) is right next to the Aegean Sea
Italy, Greece, and Albania border the Ionian Sea.
Today we call them the Mediterranean Sea, the Balearic Sea, the Ligurian Sea, the Tyrrhenian Sea, the Ionian Sea, the Adriatic Sea, the Sea of Crete, the Aegean Sea, the Sea of Marmora, and the Black Sea.
Corfu is in the Ionian Sea, a subdividsion of Mediterranean Sea.
The ancient Greeks, much like the modern Greeks, lived in and around Greece. Greece is a peninsula surrounded by the Aegean Sea, the Ionian Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea, so it is located very far away for the Pacific ocean. The Greeks are not, nor have the ever been, a pacifically situated people.

The sea to the south and east of Mainland Greece is called the Aegean Sea. It is the most important sea in Greece and most of the 2,000 islands are in this sea. The sea to the west of Mainland Greece is called the Ionian Sea. It has about five important islands, including Corfu, Zakynthos and Cephalonia.
