希臘海神：Poseidon
羅馬海神：Neptune
In Greek mythology, Poseidon (Greek: ∏οσειδών; Latin: Neptūnus) was the god of the sea, as well as of horses and, as "Earth-Shaker," of earthquakes. The sea gods Rodon in Illyrian mythology, Nethuns in Etruscan, and Neptune in Roman mythology were sea gods analogous to Poseidon. Graffiti show that Poseidon was venerated in Bronze Age Greece, but as he was integrated into the Olympian gods. Poseidon is the brother of Zeus and Hades and has many children. There is a Homeric hymn to Poseidon, who was the protector of many Hellenic cities, though he lost the contest for Athens to Athena.
