The first production Sea Venom took the designation FAW.20 (Fighter, All-Weather). It wa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Boreas (god)
Boreas (, , , , ; also , ) is the Greek god of the cold north wind, storms, and winter. Although he was normally taken as the north wind, the Roman writers Aulus Gellius and Pliny the Elder both took Boreas as a northeast wind, equivalent to the Roman god Aquilo or Septentrio. Boreas is depicted as being very strong, with a violent temper to match. He was frequently shown as a winged old man or sometimes as a young man with shaggy hair and beard, holding a conch shell and wearing a billowing cloak. Boreas's most known myth is his abduction of the Athenian princess Orithyia of Athens, Oreithyia. Description Boreas, like the rest of the wind gods, was said to be the son of Eos, the goddess of the dawn, by her husband Astraeus, a minor star-god. He is thus brother to the rest of the Anemoi (the wind gods), the five star-gods and the justice goddess Astraea. Boreas was closely associated with horses, storms, and winter. He was said to have fathered twelve colts, after taking th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
