Ποσειδα?ων :
Poseidon (Neptūnus), son of Cronus and
Rhea, brother of Zeus, Hades, etc., and husband of
Amphitrīte. As god of the sea, the element assigned to him
by lot (Il. 15.189), he sends winds
and storms, moves the waters with his trident, and causes earthquakes,
ἐνοσίχθων, ἐννοσίγαιος, γαιήοχος.
To him, as to Hades, black bulls were sacrificed, Od. 3.6; cf. the epithet κυ_ανοχαίτης. Poseidon is the enemy of the Trojans in
consequence of the faithlessness of Laomedon, Il. 21.443 ff.; and of Odysseus, because
of the blinding of Polyphēmus, his son, Od. 1.20. His dwelling is in the depths of
the sea near Aegae, Il. 13.21, Od. 5.381; but he attends the assembly of
the gods on Olympus, Il. 8.440, Il. 15.161.
