Gibraltar, kolokvijalno poznat kao stijena (ili jednostavno "Gib"), prekomorski je teritorij Ujedinjenog Kraljevstva smješten na ulazu u Sredozemno more. Na sjeveru graniči sa španjolskom, a stanovnici Gibraltara govore dva jezika - engleski i španjolski.Duga je 3 milje (5 km) i široka 0,75 milje (1,2 km), a sa Španjolskom je povezana niskim pješčanim prevlakom dugim 1 milju (1,6 km). Ime mu potječe od arapskog: Jabal Rik (planina Tarik), u čast Rika Ibn Zijada, koji je poluotok zauzeo 711.godine.Stijena se smatra jednim od dva Herkulova stupa; drugi je identificiran kao jedan od dva vrha u Sjevernoj Africi: planina Hacho, u blizini grada Ceuta (španjolski eksklavat na marokanskoj obali), ili Jebel Musa (Musa), u Maroku.Stupovi, koji su, prema Homeru, stvoreni kad je Herkul uništio planinu koja je povezivala Afriku i Europu, definirali su zapadne granice brodarstva za drevni mediteranski Svijet.
