Poseidon Relief | |
|
Poseidon was above
all, the God of the
Sea, who was capable
of calming the waves
or of summoning up
terrible storms and
so taking the lives
of those who
displayed disrespect
for him. One of the
twelve Olympic Gods,
he was brother of the
mighty Zeus and son
of Cronus and Rhea.
Poseidon helped Zeus
in the Battle of the
Titans and received
his famous trident,
which became his
symbol from the
Cyclopes. He also
contributed to the
victory of the Gods
in the Battle of the
Giants. Zeus,
Poseidon and Hades
shared out power over
the cosmos. Zeus was
given the sky,
Poseidon the sea, and
Hades the underworld.
He was usually
depicted voyaging
across the waves in
his golden chariot,
drawen by monstrous
animals, hald horse
and half serpent,
surrounded by
dolphins, nereids,
and the other
creatures of the
deep. Poseidon was
the progenitor of
many mythical heroes
such as Proteus,
Orion, Theseus, etc.
