When the sons of Cronus divided the world by lot, Zeus drew the sky, Hades the underworld, and Poseidon the sea. It was not enough. He wanted Athens too, so he struck the rock of the Acropolis with his trident and gave the city a spring of salt water. Athena planted an olive tree, and the city went with the olive. He answered by flooding the Attic plain. The Greeks called him the earth-shaker, god of storms, earthquakes and horses as much as of the sea. For people who still think the salt spring was a perfectly good offer.

A Poseidon graphic tee for mythology readers, classics students, and anyone who feels most at home near rough water. The bearded god in a hard sideways glare, gripping his trident across his bare chest with both fists, breaking waves curling up behind him. A gift for sailors, surfers, swimmers, and fans of Greek myth.
