The Seven Seas

So what are the Seven Seas exactly? According to a sentence from Wikipedia (that needs citation), the Seven Seas were:
  • Mediterranean Sea (including "marginal seas")
  • Adriatic Sea
  • Black Sea
  • Red Sea (including the Dead Sea and Galilee Sea)
  • Arabian Sea
  • Persian Gulf
  • Caspian Sea

And now for the obligatory nondescript "sea" photo (which I took near the Bahamas):
