Poseidon God of the Sea

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 Gof of the Sea was all-important to them. His wife was Amphitrite, a granddaughter to the Titan, Ocean. Poseidon had a splendid palace beneath the sea, but he was oftener to be found in Olympus. Besides being Lord of the Sea he gave the first horse to man, and he was honored as much for the one as for the other. 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. He had some connection with bulls as well as horses, but the bull was connected with many other gods too.
