| | Poseidon, they say, was the first who came to Attica; and with a blow of his trident on the Acropolis, he produced a sea or, as some say, just a well of sea-water that could be seen in the Erechtheum on the Acropolis not far from the outline of the trident on the rock. | | | Poseidon heard his son Theseus when he, believing Phaedra's charges against Hippolytus 4, prayed to the god that Hippolytus 4 might perish. | | | Zeus and Poseidon were once rivals for the hand of Thetis, but when Themis, or the MOERAE, or Proteus 2 prophesied that the son born of Thetis would be mightier than his father, they withdrew. |

| | GREEK vs. NORSE MYTHOLOGY |
| | Poseidon's prize was to become the god of the sea, and therefore he was widely worshipped by seamen. | | | The fact that in both mythologies the gods and goddesses were "human" enough to require sustenance is one more example of how easy it would be for the people of these cultures to relate to them. | | | If a mythology is taken as a reflection of the society that worships it, that leads to the conclusion that the Norse women had less stature than Greek women. |
