In Greek mythology, Pontus (/ˈpɒntəs/; Greek: Πόντος, translit. Póntos, lit. "Sea")[1] was an ancient, pre-Olympian sea-god, one of the Greek primordial deities. Pontus was Gaia's son and has no father; according to the Greek poet Hesiod, he was born without coupling,[2] though according to Hyginus, Pontus is the son of Aether and Gaia.[3]
