According to the theory of the Black Sea flood , about 5600 BC. e. The Black Sea was filled with salt water (a breakthrough of the Bosphorus and / or Dardanelles ). After breaking through the straits, about 12,500 kmΒ³ of salt water poured into the reservoir. After that, the freshwater inland lake increased significantly in area and turned into a sea with salt water.
Around 5500-5000 years BC. e. in place of the Baltic Sea , the glacial Littorin Sea was formed after.
