God of the sea. His weapon was a dart, which could move the earth, and shatter any object. He was second only to Zeus in power among the gods. Under the water, he had a good golden palace. Poseidon was the husband of Amphitrite, one of the Nereid by who had a son, Triton.Poseidon had numerous other love affairs. At one point he desired Demeter. To put him off Demeter asked him to make the most beautiful animal that the world had ever seen. To impress her Poseidon created the first horse. Sometimes his first attempts were unsuccessful and created a lot of other animals in his quest. By the time the horse was created his passion for Demeter had gone. Who's your favorite God or Goddess?
