Mesopotamia means "land between the two RIVERS" not "land between the two SEAS". The two rivers that Mesopotamia sits between are the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. However, the region of Mesopotamia sits between the Mediterranean Sea, the Persian Gulf, the Black, and the Caspian Sea (though does not occupy all of the land in that area).
