 Because of Neptune’s violent temper, he also became


associated with earthquakes. At the time, there was
very little understanding of what really caused
earthquakes. And the ancient Romans and Greeks
thought they came from the sea, but had no scientific
knowledge of things like plates and shifting of the
earth. Since Neptune was the god the sea, it was
thought that an earthquake occurred when he
became angry. That’s why they thought that storms
and everything that includes water and some earth
was cause by Neptune’s emotions.
