General information[]

Boreas (bɔːri.əs, bɒri.əs, bɒri.æs, Βορέας, Boréas; also Βορρᾶς, Βορρᾶς) is the Greek god of the cold north wind ^WP, storms, and winter. &nbspk;Although he was normally taken as the north wind, the Roman writers Aulus Gellius ^WP and Pliny the Elder ^WP both took Boreas as a northeast wind, equivalent to the Roman god Aquilo or Septentrio. Boreas is depicted as being very strong, with a violent temper to match. He was frequently shown as a winged old man or sometimes as a young man with shaggy hair and beard, holding a conch ^WP shell and wearing a billowing cloak. Boreas's most known myth is his abduction of the Athenian princess Oreithyia ^WP.

Description[]

Boreas, like the rest of the wind gods, was said to be the son of Eos, the goddess of the dawn, by her husband Astraeus, a minor star-god. He is thus brother to the rest of the Anemoi ^WP (the wind gods), the five star-gods and the justice goddess Astraea.

Boreas was closely associated with horses, storms, and winter. He was said to have fathered twelve colts, after taking the form of a stallion, to the mares of Erichthonius ^WP, king of Dardania ^WP. These were said to be able to run across a field of grain without trampling the plants. The Greeks believed that his home was in Thrace ^WP.

He is said to have fathered three giant Hyperborean priests of Apollo by Chione. Pausanias ^WP wrote that Boreas had snakes ^WP instead of feet, though in art he was usually depicted with winged human feet. In ancient art, he is usually depicted as a bearded older man.

Anemoi[]

In ancient Greek religion ^WP and myth ^WP, the Anemoi ^Def (Greek: Ἄνεμοι, "Winds") were wind gods who were each ascribed a cardinal direction ^WP from which their respective winds came (see Classical compass winds ^WP), and were each associated with various nature ^WP, seasons ^WP and weather ^WP conditions. They were the progeny of the goddess of the dawn ^WP Eos and her husband, the god of the dusk, Astraeus. They were sometimes represented as gusts of wind ^WP, and at other times were personified as winged ^WP men. They were also sometimes depicted as horses ^WP kept in the stables of the storm god Aeolus, who provided Odysseus ^WP with the Anemoi in the Odyssey ^WP. The Spartans ^WP were reported to sacrifice a horse to the winds on Mount Taygetus ^WP. Astraeus, the astrological deity (sometimes associated with Aeolus), and Eos/Aurora, the goddess of the dawn ^WP, were the parents of the Anemoi, according to the Greek ^WP poet Hesiod ^WP.

Of the four chief Anemoi, Boreas (Aquilo in Roman mythology ^WP) is the north wind and bringer of cold winter air, Zephyrus (Favonius in Latin ^WP) is the west wind and bringer of light spring and early-summer breezes, and Notus (Auster in Latin ^WP) is the south wind and bringer of the storms of late summer and autumn; Eurus, the southeast (or according to some, the east) wind, was not associated with any of the three Greek seasons ^WP, and is the only one of these four Anemoi not mentioned in Hesiod's Theogony ^WP or in the Orphic Hymns ^WP.

The deities equivalent to the Anemoi in Roman mythology were the Venti ^Def (Latin ^WP: "winds"). These gods had different names, but were otherwise very similar to their Greek counterparts, borrowing their attributes and being frequently conflated with them. Ptolemy's world map listed 12 winds: Septentrio (N), Aquilo (NNE), Vulturnus (NE), Subsolanus (E), Eurus (SE), Euroauster (SSE), Austeronotus (S), Euronotus (SSW), Africus (SW), Zephirus (W), Eurus (NW), Circius (NNW).

Boreas (Aquilo)
See also: Boreas

Boreas is the god of the north wind and the harshest of the Anemoi. He is mostly known for his abduction of the Athenian princess Orithyia ^WP, by whom he became the father of the Boreads ^WP. In art, he is usually depicted as a bearded, older man. His Roman equivalent is called Aquilo.
Zephyrus (Favonius)
See also: Zephyrus

Zephyrus (Ζέφυρος, Zéphyros), sometimes shortened in English to Zephyr, is the Greek god of the west wind ^WP. The gentlest of the winds, Zephyrus is known as the fructifying wind, the messenger of spring.

Zephyrus was reported as having several wives in different stories. He was said to be the husband of Iris, goddess of the rainbow. He abducted the goddess Chloris, and gave her the domain of flowers. With Chloris, he fathered Karpos ('fruit').

Zephyrus was also claimed to have killed one of Apollo's many male lovers Hyacinth out of jealousy. Hyacinth was killed by a discus thrown by Apollo. Though according to some sources, his death was said to be an accident, others said that Zephyrus was the true culprit, having blown the discus off course.
Notus (Auster)
See also: Notus and Lodos

Notus (Νότος, Nótos) was the Greek god of the south wind ^WP. He was associated with the desiccating hot wind of the rise of Sirius after midsummer ^WP, was thought to bring the storms of late summer and early autumn, and was feared as a destroyer of crops.

Notus' equivalent in Roman mythology was Auster, the embodiment of the sirocco ^WP wind, a southerly wind which brings cloudy weather, powerful winds and rain to southern Europe.

The name Australia ^WP (the "southern land") is derived from Auster.
Eurus (Vulturnus)
See also: Eurus

Eurus (Εὖρος, Euros) according to some was the southeast wind, but according to others the east wind. On the Tower of the Winds ^WP in Athens, Eurus occupies the southeast side, while Apeliotes is in the east. However, it is widely accepted that Eurus is the east wind, while Apeliotes is the southeast wind.

Eurus' Roman counterpart is Vulturnus, according to Pliny the Elder ^WP; but for Aulus Gellius ^WP Volturnus was the equivalent of the southeast wind Euronotus.

Eurus is closely related to Helios in passages of the Dionysiaca, being called from his place near Helios' palace, Phaethon, where the sun rose in the east.
