北风神玻瑞阿斯希腊语:Βορέας,Boréas)居住在色雷斯的海摩斯山的山洞里,他爱上了雅典国王厄瑞克透斯的女儿俄瑞提亚,但是遭到国王的反对。一次,玻瑞阿斯趁着俄瑞提亚在伊利索斯河边同女伴们游戏之际,刮起北风,掠走了俄里梯亚,他们生有二子二女:仄忒斯、卡拉伊斯、克勒俄帕特拉和喀俄涅。他的两个二子合成为玻瑞阿代,都参加了阿尔戈英雄的远征。为了向雅典人示好,玻瑞阿斯在色萨利欧玻亚岛摧毁了波斯国王薛西斯的舰队。作为回报,雅典人在伊利索斯河畔为他修建了祭坛。玻瑞阿斯常被描绘成生有双翼、留有胡须、极为强壮的男子形象。玻瑞阿斯在罗马神话中称为“阿奎洛”。

In ancient Greek religion and myth, the Anemoi (Greek: Ἄνεμοι, "Winds") were wind gods who were each ascribed a cardinal direction from which their respective winds came (see Classical compass winds), and were each associated with various seasons and weather conditions. They were sometimes represented as mere gusts of wind, at other times were personified as winged men, and at still other times were depicted as horses kept in the stables of the storm god Aeolus, who provided Odysseus with the Anemoi in the Odyssey. The Spartans were reported to sacrifice a horse to the winds on Mount Taygetus. Astraeus, the astrological deity sometimes associated with Aeolus, and Eos, the goddess of the dawn, were the parents of the Anemoi, according to the Greek poet Hesiod.
