Detailed explanation-1: -Access to the sea meant that Ancient Greece could grow economically. That’s because being on the sea allows for many ports to be built for trade. The Greeks also became good mariners and were able to use their skills to trade with other city-states. Ancient Greeks used to travel via the Aegean Sea from city to city.
Detailed explanation-2: -The sea has two major roles in Greek mythology. It is associated with the voyage into Hades, and as the primordial water, Oceanus, it represents vitality and even eternal life. Until now, scholars have viewed these two aspects as fundamentally antinomic.
Detailed explanation-3: -The four basic needs in Ancient Greece are food, homes, health/medicine and clothes/fashion. Rest and exercise were highly recommended in ancient Greece.
Detailed explanation-4: -Unlike many of these other civilizations, the Greek civilization did not develop in a river valley, but it was surrounded by water. Ancient Greece had the Mediterranean Sea to the south, the Ionian Sea to the west, and the Aegean Sea to the east.
