The Nereids (Νηρεις meaning ‘Daughters of Nereus’) were the fifty sea-nymph daughters of the ‘Old Man of the Sea’ Nereus in Greek mythology. They were goddesses of the sea’s rich bounty and protectors of sailors and fishermen, coming to the aid of those in distress. Individually they represented various facets of the sea from the salty brine, to the sea foam, sand, rocks, waves and currents, as well as the various skills possessed by seamen. The Nereides symbolised everything that was beautiful and kind about the sea and their voices sang as they danced around their father in their home at the bottom of the Aegean Sea. The most notable of the Nereids were Thetis (goddess of the sea) and Amphitrite (queen of the sea) who was also married to Poseidon (god of the sea).
