Syrtis Major (Mars)

Libyan Gulf, now Gulf of Sirte.

Syrtis Major Planum is a "dark spot" located in the boundary. It was discovered, on the basis of data from Mars Global Surveyor, to be a low-relief shield volcano, but was formerly believed to be a plain, and was then known as Syrtis Major Planitia. The dark color comes from the basaltic volcanic rock of the region and the relative lack of dust. A possible landing site for the Mars 2020 rover mission is Jezero crater within the region.

A albedo feature is an area which shows a contrast in brightness or darkness (albedo) with adjacent areas. On Mars they are named after names from classical mythology assigned by Schiaparelli and Antoniadi.
