Best Answer

The sea was first named by the ancient Greeks who called it "Inhospitable Sea." The sea got this reputation because it was difficult to navigate, and hostile tribes inhabited its shores. It was later named the Black Sea because of its hostility and mixture of hydroden sulfide. The Black Sea has a depth of over 150 meters, and its waters are filled with hydrogen sulfide for almost two kilometers.
