Etymology
The name of the Pillars of Hercules is an allusion to a location in Ancient Greek mythology: the furthermost extent of the twelve labors of Hercules, the location beyond which Plato claimed the legendary island of Atlantis could be found, and a metaphor for the end of a journey or the edge of the known world. The name was shared by promontories flanking the entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar on Earth.
