One of the Twelve Olympians, he was also feared as the provoker of earthquakes & worshipped as the creator of the horse. There is a Homeric hymn to Poseidon, the protector of many Hellenic cities, & many coins have been minted in his honor. The trident is his most recognizable emblem, though his son, Triton, carries one as well. Tridents are featured widely in mythical, historical & modern culture. The major Hindu god, Shiva the Destroyer & the sea god Poseidon or Neptune or Britannia are classically depicted bearing a trident. Since Poseidon had multiple powers, the Ancient Greeks invented various epithets to describe his manifestations & pray to him. To some, he was the Savior of Sailors, to others the Averter of Earthquakes. Yet a third group venerated him as The Creator & Tamer of Horses cause It is said that Poseidon struck a rock with his trident to create the very first horse.
