Black Sea in the Crimea Calque of Ottoman Turkish قره دكز ( Kara Deñiz , “ Black Sea ” ) (modern Turkish Karadeniz kara ( “ black, dark; north ” ) + deniz ( “ sea ” ) ). Compare Russian Чёрное море ( Čórnoje more ) . The Turkish word is derived from the languages of the Near East, which is ultimately from an Old Iranian Ancient Greek Πόντος Ἄξεινος ( Póntos Áxeinos ) (first attested in 462 BC) is a rendering of Old Iranian *axšaina- ( “ dark-colored ” ) . The naming is according to the system in which color names indicated the cardinal points (black [or dark] for north, red for south, white for west, and green or light blue for east); compare Red Sea Achaemenids ; see Iranica for details.[ 1]
