Levante è un termine storico-geografico che si riferisce approssimativamente a un'ampia area del Medio Oriente delimitata a nord dalle montagne del Tauro, a ovest dal Mar Mediterraneo, a sud dal Deserto Arabico e a est dalla Mesopotamia. Il Levante non include l'Anatolia (anche se a volte vi si include la Cilicia) e la penisola arabica, ma comprende solitamente l'isola di Cipro. A volte la penisola del Sinai viene inclusa, tuttavia essa viene per lo più considerata un'area intermedia che costituisce un ponte di terra tra il Levante vero e proprio e l'Egitto.
