About Pontus
In Greek mythology, Pontus is the personification of the sea. In Hesiod's Theogony, he is the offspring of Gaia, who produces him alone. With Gaia, he becomes the progenitor of a family comprising mostly marine beings and monsters; the pair's children are Nereus, Phorcys, Ceto, Thaumas, and Eurybia. In a fragment of the lost Titanomachy, Pontus and Gaia are described as the parents of Aigaion. The 2nd-century AD Fabulae assigns Pontus a consort named Mare, and places him as the son of Gaia and Aether.
