The image of the Pillars of Hercules has accompanied the history of mankind since the time of the Ancient World. According to legend, Hercules/Hercules made his way here from the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic with the formation of rocks along the edges of the resulting Strait of Gibraltar, where in ancient times the Pillars were built, indicating the Gates of exit from the Ancient World. To embark on a further voyage in those days practically meant to go to the Other World with a very illusory hope of returning from a voyage.→
