Biography

The Phorcydes are the children of Phorcys and Ceto. Hesiod's Theogony lists the children of Phorcys and Ceto as Echidna, The Gorgons (Euryale, Stheno, and the famous Medusa), The Graeae (Deino, Enyo, and Pemphredo), and Ladon, also called the Drakon Hesperios ("Hesperian Dragon", or dragon of the Hesperides).

PHORKYS (or Phorcys) was an ancient sea-god who presided over the hidden dangers of the deep. He and his wife Keto were also the gods of all the large creatures which inahbited the depths of the sea. Keto's name means the "whale" or "sea-monster" and Phorkys' was probably associated with seals (phokes in Greek).
