Poesidon (Neptune)
“He was the ruler of the sea, Zeus's brother and second only to him in eminence. The Greeks on both sides of the Aegean were seamen and the God of the Sea was all important to them. His wife was Amphitrite, a granddaughter of the Titan, Ocean. . . .
But when he drove in his golden car over the waters, the thunder of the waves sank into stillness, and tranquil peace followed his smooth-rolling wheels. He was commonly called ‘Earth-shaker’ and was always shown carrying his trident, a three-pronged spear, with which he would shake and shatter whatever he pleased” (Hamilton 28-29).
