This is a question open to debate. Zeus was considered the head of the gods. Yet Poseidon had the power of the sea which was very important to the Greeks. Greece is made of many islands and the Greeks needed to travel by sea and fish for food. Poseidon could get angry and flood the land and had many sea monsters. Zeus had only his lightning bolts.
