The strait between Asia Minor and Europe is known as the "Cow Ford" due to a historical association with cattle herding. The name likely stems from the early practices of crossing livestock between the two continents, particularly in regions where cattle were driven across the water. This term reflects the significance of agriculture and animal husbandry in the area's cultural and economic history. Additionally, local legends or linguistic variations may have contributed to the naming.
