Triton

A minor sea-god. Triton was the son of the Olympian Poseidon and the Oceanid (or Nereïd) Amphitrite. Triton was the brother of Albion, Benthesicyme, Charybdis and Rhodes.

Triton was often described as a merman and carried a horn, which he blew. Triton appeared to the Argonauts, who were stranded in the middle of the desert in Libya. Triton aided them by pulling their ship (Argo) back to the sea.
