Achilles contending with the Rivers. By John Flaxman.
Almo was in ancient Roman religion the eponymous god of the small river Almo in the vicinity of Rome. He had a naiad daughter named Larunda.
In stories, Almo was usually considered heroic or fatherly. His appearance in several texts described him as handsome.
Nilus is one of 3,000 river gods, who represent the god of the Nile river itself.
He was father to several children, of these included Memphis (mother of Libya by Epaphus a king of Egypt).
The river gods console their brother over Daphne's fate.
The river gods are the offspring of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys, and the brothers of the Oceanids.

Phasis is one of the numerous river-gods, deities presiding over rivers.
He is one of the three hundred divine river-gods, sons of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys, although in other authors he is the son of the sun-god Helios by the Oceanid Ocyrrhoë.
