Poseidon is the one of the three top gods in Greek Mythology. He is also known as the God of the seas and horses and is thought to be responsible for earthquakes and ship wrecks. This resulted in the worship of Poseidon by all citizens of ancient Greece especially fisherman and shipmates.
Neptune was the god of the sea in Roman mythology (derived from the god Poseidon of Greek mythology) and to my knowledge, he is not worshipped anymore. In earlier times, sailors used to pray to Neptune for safe voyages.
