Description
Brizo is an ancient Greek goddess who was known as the protector of mariners, sailors, and fishermen. She was worshipped primarily by the women of Delos, who set out food offerings in vessels shaped like boats. How the boats of sacrificial items was delivered to Brizo is unknown. The only thing not sacrificed to Brizo was fish as it was considered an act that would attract bad luck; this goddess' offerings consisted of a variety of items, all of which were offered in hopes for protection, prosperity, well-being, or abundance. Brizo was also known as a prophet specializing in the interpretation of dreams
