==Behind the Scenes== According to [[George R. R. Martin]], the ambiguity over whether Ulthos is a separate continent or a big island off [[Essos]] highlights how people from [[Westeros]] do not know much about the [[Further East]].<ref>Vulture: [https://www.vulture.com/2014/11/george-rr-martin-new-book.html George R.R. Martin on What Not to Believe in Game of Thrones] (November 6, 2014)</ref> Ulthos might be a reference to ''[[w:Thule|Ultima Thule]]'', a name used on ancient and medieval maps to signify barely-known lands at the edge of charts. ''Ultima Thule'' is Latin for "Farthest Thule", and Ulthos is the farthest land that is known to people of Westeros.
