They had the expression in the ancient Mediterranean of non plus ultra or

" not more beyond ", for there be sea~monsters
and whirlpools to swallow you up.

....of course the Phoenicians
were flying out past the that foreboding Gibraltar
down the coast of West Africa on regular trading runs
for the longest times before anyone else .

It was only just a little bit to their advantage
to leave those curses and evil stories in place.

What a monopoly they had so early on ,
on those very profitable trading
& spice routes...

---->Plus Ultra , Neocon !
