Mythological figure in Greek mythology
In Greek mythology, the Old Man of the Sea (Ancient Greek: ἅλιος γέρων, romanized: hálios gérōn; Greek: Γέροντας της Θάλασσας, romanized: Yérondas tis Thálassas) was a figure who could be identified as any of several water-gods, generally Nereus or Proteus, but also Triton, Pontus, Phorcys, or Glaucus, as well as the father of Semystra, or a descendant of the seer Leukias. According to Pausanias' Description of Greece, the people of ancient Gythium called Nereus the Old Man of the Sea, after Homer's Iliad, which gives the same identification.
