Between the Jurassic and the Late Cretaceous (which started about 100 Ma), Gondwana began breaking up, pushing Africa and India north, across the Tethys and opening up the Indian ocean. As these land masses pushed in on it from all sides, up until as recently as the Late Miocene (15 Ma), the Tethys ocean continued to shrink, becoming the Tethys Seaway or (second) Tethys Sea.

The ancient sea that separated Gondwanaland and Laurasia in Alfred Wegener's Continental Drift proposal was called the Tethys Sea.
When did the Tethys sea disappear?
The Tethys Sea gradually disappeared during the late Mesozoic and early Cenozoic eras, primarily due to the tectonic processes associated with the collision of the African and Eurasian tectonic plates. This process led to the closure of the Tethys Ocean and the uplift of mountain ranges, such as the Alps and the Himalayas. By the late Cretaceous to early Paleogene period, the remnants of the Tethys Sea had largely been transformed into smaller bodies of water, such as the Mediterranean Sea.
