Lukomorye shown on a part of a map drawn by Gerrit van Schagen (c. 1642 – c. March 1724), an engraver and cartographer from Amsterdam, known for his exquisite reproductions of earlier maps.
Лукомо́рье features in Russian folklore as a land which is sort of a dimensional portal and is most well-known from Pushkin's fairy tale poem Ruslan and Lyudmila. Lukomorye is the putative site of both the вещий камень, the Alatyr stone (the "stone of prophecy", the "crossroads stone", the Omphallos of the world), and is also the location of the World Tree.
