No Rating

Item ID:GK0024
Plot:The Greeks prayed to Poseidon before embarking on sea journeys. They offered him the first fish caught, called him "the savior," and attributed their naval victory over the Persians to him. In this program, we learn how Poseidon was saved by his mother Rhea, and how he acquired his trident and used it to help his brother Zeus in his struggle against the Titans and Giants. We see some of the places where Poseidon was worshipped and meet characters in several Poseidon stories: Amphitrite, Delphinus, Polyphemus, Demeter, Arion, Pegasus, the Minotaur. We learn why he sided with the Greeks in the Trojan War, and how he punished them for their cruelty to their defeated enemy, causing Homer to write, "Awful is the fate of anyone who invokes the wrath of the gods while sailing the seas."
