The Potamoi (, "rivers") are the gods of rivers in Greek mythology. They are the fathers of Naiads, and the brothers of the Oceanids, and as such, the sons of Oceanus and Tethys. The river gods were depicted in one of three forms: a man-headed bull, a bull-headed man with the body of a serpent-like fish from the waist down, or as an arm resting upon an amphora jug pouring water. ==List of River-gods (Potamoi)== The following are the sons of Oceanus and Tethys:〔Hyginus, ''Fabulae'': "Preface"〕〔Hesiod, (''Theogony'' ), 334〕〔Pseudo-Plutarch, ''On Rivers''〕 # Achelous or Akheloios # Acheron # Acragas # Aeas # Aegaeus # Aesar # Aesepus # Almo # Alpheus # Amnisos # Amphrysos # Anapos # Anauros # Anigros # Apidanus # Arar # Araxes # Ardescus # Arnos # Asopus # Asterion # Axius # Baphyras # Borysthenes # Brychon # Caanthus # Caicinus # Caicus # Cayster # Cebren # Cephissus # Chremetes # Cladeus or Kladeos # Clitumnus (Roman mythology) # Cocytus # Cratais # Crinisus # Cydnos # Cytheros # Elisson # Enipeus # Erasinus # Eridanus # Erymanthus # Euphrates # Eurotas # Evenus # Ganges # Granicus # Haliacmon # Halys # Hebrus # Heptaporus # Hermus # Hydaspes # Ilissos # Imbrasos # Inachus # Indus # Inopos # Ismenus # Istrus or Ister # Ladon # Lamos # Lethe (exceptionally female) # Lycormas # Marsyas # Maeander # Meles # Mincius # Nestos # Nilus # Numicius # Nymphaeus # Orontes # Pactolus # Parthenius # Phasis # Phlegethon or Pyriphlegethon # Phyllis # Peneus # Pleistos # Porpax # Rhesus # Rhine # Rhodius # Rhyndacus # Satnioeis # Sangarius # Scamander # Simoeis # Spercheus # Strymon # Symaethus # Tanais # Termessus # Thermodon # Tiberinus (Roman mythology) # Tigris # Titaressus 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Potamoi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
