* * LOGO Poseidon (Neptune) 为什么臂？ 波塞冬是威严的海王，掌管环绕大 陆的所有水域。他用令人战栗的地 动山摇来统治他的王国。他有呼风 之术，并且 能够掀起或是平息狂 暴的大海。手持三叉戟，他坐在铜 蹄金髦马驾的车里掠过海浪。尽管 他在奥林匹斯山有一席之地，但是 大部分时间他都住在海洋深处他的 灿烂夺目的金色宫殿里。 Poseidon was son of Cronus and Rhea, and brother of Zeus. After the war with the Titans, he became the mighty and majestic god of the sea, ruling all the waters around the earth. He was considered to have the greatest power next to Zeus. Poseidon ruled his kingdom with cold shaking. He could call up all the big winds and stir up or calm down the stormy oceans. With a trident in his hand, he flew across the waves in a carriage drawn by horses with bronze hoofs and golden hairs. Although he had a seat on Olympus, he lived, most of the time, in his shining golden palace in the deeps of the oceans. Poseidon was ambitious and aggressive. Unhappy with the part of power given to him, he planned to throw down Zeus from his high position. The plan did not come off, and he was sent away to serve a human being on earth. With the help of Apollo he built the famous walls of Troy for king Laomedon. On one occasion he argued with Athena over the naming of the new city Athens and was forced to give in to the goddess of wisdom. On another he entered into a bitter dispute with Apollo over the king of Corinth and won the case in the end. Poseidon’s loves produced strange children. His wife bore him the children who were half man and half-fish in form. When Demeter did not like his attention and changed herself into a horse, shame -less Poseidon turned himself into a horse to continue his seeking. Out of their love a wonderful horse, Arion by name, was born. This horse had the power of speech and was sure to win all the carriage races in Greece. Poseidon robbed Theophane, a beautiful maiden, and taking her to an island, changed her into a sheep and himself into a ram. As a result the golden-fleeced ram came into being.
