Antarctica</b> emerges from early Western theories of a vast continent, known as <a href="/wiki/Terra_Australis" title="Terra Australis">Terra Australis</a>, believed to exist in the far south of the globe. The term <i>Antarctic</i>, referring to the opposite of the <a href="/wiki/Arctic_Circle" title="Arctic Circle">Arctic Circle</a>, was coined by <a href="/wiki/Marinus_of_Tyre" title="Marinus of Tyre">Marinus of Tyre</a> in the 2nd century AD. </p><p>The rounding of the <a href="/wiki/Cape_of_Good_Hope" title="Cape of Good Hope">Cape of Good Hope</a> and <a href="/wiki/Cape_Horn" title="Cape Horn">Cape Horn</a> in the 15th and 16th centuries proved that <i>Terra Australis Incognita</i> ("Unknown Southern Land"), if it existed, was a continent in its own right. In 1773, <a href="/wiki/James_Cook" title="James Cook">James Cook</a> and his crew crossed the <a href="/wiki/Antarctic_Circle" title="Antarctic Circle">Antarctic Circle</a> for the first time. Although he discovered new islands, he did not sight the continent itself. It is believed that he came as close as 240 km (150 mi) from the mainland. <sub></sub> On 28 January 1820, a Russian expedition led by <a href="/wiki/Fabian_Gottlieb_von_Bellingshausen" title="Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen">Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mikhail_Lazarev" title="Mikhail Lazarev">Mikhail Lazarev</a> reached 69° 21' south latitude, 2° 15' west longitude, and on 2 February, 66° 25' south latitude, 1° 11' west longitude, at both of which positions he was stopped by the pack. He then steered eastward, and on 17 February reached 69° 6' south latitude, and on the 19th, 68° 5' south latitude, 16° 37' east longitude. Later, he reached 66° 53' south latitude, 40° 56' east longitude, where he thought land must be near, on account of the numbers of birds. Ten months later an American sealer, <a href="/wiki/Nathaniel_Palmer" title="Nathaniel Palmer">Nathaniel Palmer</a>, became the first to sight Antarctica on 17 November 1820. The first landing was most likely just over a year later when English-born American Captain <a href="/wiki/John_Davis_(sealer)" title="John Davis (sealer)">John Davis</a>, a <a href="/wiki/Seal_hunter" class="mw-redirect" title="Seal hunter">sealer</a>, set foot on the ice. </p><p>Several expeditions attempted to reach the <a href="/wiki/South_Pole" title="South Pole">South Pole</a> in the early 20th century, during the "<a href="/wiki/Heroic_Age_of_Antarctic_Exploration" title="Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration">Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration</a>".

On 16 March, the approaching winter drove him northward for rest to New Zealand and the tropical islands of the Pacific. In November 1773, Cook left New Zealand, having parted company with the <i>Adventure</i>, and reached <a href="/wiki/60th_parallel_south" title="60th parallel south">60°&#160;S</a> by <a href="/wiki/177th_meridian_west" title="177th meridian west">177°&#160;W</a>, whence he sailed eastward keeping as far south as the floating ice allowed. The Antarctic Circle was crossed on 20 December and Cook remained south of it for three days, being compelled after reaching <span class="nowrap">67° 31′ S</span> to stand north again in <a href="/wiki/135th_meridian_west" title="135th meridian west">135°&#160;W</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-EB1911_8-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EB1911-8"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>A long detour to <span class="nowrap">47° 50′ S</span> served to show that there was no land connection between New Zealand and <a href="/wiki/Tierra_del_Fuego" title="Tierra del Fuego">Tierra del Fuego</a>.

This point, reached on 30 January 1774, was the farthest south attained in the 18th century. With a great detour to the east, almost to the coast of South America, the expedition regained Tahiti for refreshment. In November 1774, Cook started from New Zealand and crossed the South Pacific without sighting land between <a href="/wiki/53rd_parallel_south" title="53rd parallel south">53°</a> and <a href="/wiki/57th_parallel_south" title="57th parallel south">57°&#160;S</a> to Tierra del Fuego; then, passing Cape Horn on 29 December, he rediscovered <a href="/wiki/Anthony_de_la_Roch%C3%A9#Maps_showing_la_Roché&#39;s_discovery" title="Anthony de la Roché">Roché Island</a> renaming it <a href="/wiki/South_Georgia_and_the_South_Sandwich_Islands" title="South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands">Isle of Georgia</a>, and discovered the <a href="/wiki/South_Georgia_and_the_South_Sandwich_Islands" title="South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands">South Sandwich Islands</a> (named <i>Sandwich Land</i> by him), the only ice-clad land he had seen, before crossing the South Atlantic to the Cape of Good Hope between <a href="/wiki/55th_parallel_south" title="55th parallel south">55°</a> and <a href="/wiki/60th_parallel_south" title="60th parallel south">60°</a>.
