Amfitriti
Greece, Nafplion

The main entry to the old city of Nafplio was from the Pylis OF Xiras (Gate of land). Next to the current KTEL, the main street of the old city of Nafplio hides all the charm of the mansions of the second Venetian domination and leads to the graphic square of Saint Spyridona. A church built in 1802 where in its wall is still distinguished the hole from the bullet of Mayromixaleon that took the life of Kapodistria. Opposite and towards the left is a beautiful Turkish fountain embellished with Arabic letters, which hide behind it the bath of the level grounded room of Amfitriti. Precisely next to it are the small steps that lead to reception and to the remaining graphical rooms. Amfitriti: Amfitriti is one of the fifty Nereids, daughter of Nirea and Doridas. In the Odyssey she is described as the female personification of sea, as Neptune is the male corresponding personification. Amfitriti became Neptunes spouse and with him gave birth to the Tritones (male marine deities, half persons and half fish.) According to the legacy: Neptune had seen Amfitriti dancing with the other Nereids in Naxos. He fell madly in love with her and he decided to steal her. Amfitriti wanting to avoid him, resorted to Atlas to the utmost limits of the sea. Neptune sent the dolphin to seek her, which found her and brought her close to him. As remuneration, the god of the sea gave the dolphin constellation in order for it to live for all eternity. Amfitriti was worshipped with great acknowledgments in many cities of Ancient Greece - mainly coastal cities such as the Cyclades, Lesvos, Thassos and elsewhere. The figure of the beautiful Nereid inspired many artists from the ancient years and up to today. Her usual representation is of her seating on the ridge of the dolphin holding in her hand a trident.
