Sotadic is a term related to the ancient Greek poet Sotades (Greek: Σωτάδης) some of whose verses, preserved in the Greek Anthology, relate to homosexuality. The explorer Sir Richard Burton invented the concept of a "Sotadic Zone" of the world, including the Mediterranean region, parts of Asia, and all of North and South America, in which homosexual relations were supposed to be particularly prevalent.
