Q1: What was the main responsibility of Neptune?
[Answer]

(The ancient Greeks knew him as Poseidon.)

Neptune was the god of the sea.

His weapon was a trident, which could shake the Earth, and shatter any object.

He was second only to Jupiter in power amongst the gods.

Symbols that tell you that a sculpture is of Poseidon are a three-pronged spear, a horse and a bull.
