Another word for "present throughout time" ?

Hi could someone tell me, is there a specific word I can use that means "present throughout time"? Like, something that, to our best knowledge, has always existed- maybe such as Oceans...

Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you! Emotion: smile

Depending on context, "timeless" might work. You might call oceans timeless, but you can't call something omnipresent unless it's present everywhere as well as "everywhen." (No, "everywhen" is not a word, but it should be.)

That's the closest thing I've gotten too, but something just seems slightly off... it's probably my own head. Emotion: stick out tongue Thanks Phi

Yes, I definitely had the same struggle with the word omnipresent, though I think it's a bit closer than timeless, or eternal, and the like for what I'm going for. Thank you Khoff!!

Hi guys,

How about 'eternal'?

I'm looking for the same type of word. For my situation I think I'll just say "forever present"

"Ubiquitous" is good word that avoids any unwanted religious connotations that come with omnipresent.
