\b0 Brother of Zeus, he was the god of the sea and the lands that bordered it. He lived with
his beautiful wife Amphitrite at the bottom of the sea, in a wonderful palace whose walls were encrusted with mother of pearl, gems, and coral. He ruled over the minor deities of the sea: the Nereids, Tritons, and Sirens. The horse and dolphin were sacr
ed to him and the trident was his chief attribute.\par
