He had also the cult title "earth shaker". In pre-Olympian Bronze Age Greece, he was venerated as a chief deity at Pylos and Thebes. Poseidon ( / p ə ˈ s aɪ d ən, p ɒ-, p oʊ-/ Greek: Ποσειδῶν, pronounced ) was one of the Twelve Olympians in ancient Greek religion and myth, god of the sea, storms, earthquakes and horses.
