Poseidon is the ruler of the sea, so he was prayed to for the safety of sailors. He created horses, and in the process, created a slew of less perfect animals like the hippo and the zebra.

Answer 2: Click link below and look for each name you want. There is usually an etymology.
The smart Greeks cooked up the story that the gods preferred the things which the Greeks themselves didn't like or want. When a sacrifice was made, the animal or bird was gutted, and the guts burnt on the altar for the gods, because they preferred it, with the meat distributed to the priests, donors and others deepening on how much meat was available. Similarly the offerings of the 'first fruits' of the season made to the gods were the inferior products, with the main crop kept for themselves. Jars placed on graves were supposedly filled with olive oil, but the neck had a block in it so that only a few drops of oil was provided - the jar was otherwise empty. A thrifty people, and quite able to dud the gods, as long as the superficialities were religiously observed.
