HELP: Trivia/ 7 seas

[Sandi Ploetz <EPloetz195@AOL.COM>]

Hi all,

     Asking to tap into the collective wisdom of the group.  I have had a
request for the
names of the "7seas"...... as in "Sinbad sailed the 7 seas."

      I have checked several places and can find references to and historical
explanations of  the term "7 seas," but no listing of what the 7 were
supposed to be.

 Is this just one of those expressions that has always been used and never
defined or were there really 7 seas that were counted out?  Any help off-list
would be appreciated. Thanks

Sandi
