Eurus

In Greek mythology, Eurus, or Euros was the god of the east or southeast wind. He was the brother of BOREAS, the north wind, ZEPHYRUS, the west wind and NOTUS, the south wind. His other brothers were Kaikias, the god of the northeast wind; Apeliotes, who was also a god of the east wind; Lips, the god of the southwest wind and Skeiron, the god of the northwest wind. Together, they were called the ANEMOI. They are depicted as young men with wings who were bearded or clean-shaven. They were also depicted as horses. Their parents were Astreus and Eos. Eos was the beautiful goddess of the dawn while Astreus was a Titan, the race of gods that came after the PRIMORDIAL GODS and before the Olympians. It is unclear whether Astreus was a first or second generation Titan. In Roman mythology, Eurus’ counterpart is called Vulturnus.
