Psamathe

Psamathe was the Nereid goddess of the sand beaches and wife of Proteus, the seal-herder of Poseidon, who Homer calls the old man of the sea. Psamathe was also the lover of Aiginetan king Aiakos, who ambushed her on the beach. She tried to escape his grasp by transforming herself into a seal, but he refused to give up and she bore him a son named Phokos, meaning the seal. Part of the Mythical Heads collection
