Triton is a god and messenger of the deep sea in Greek mythology. He is the son of Poseidon and Amphitrite, sea gods. Triton is usually depicted with the upper body of a human and the tail of a fish. One of his attributes is a snail shell that he could play like a trumpet to calm or raise ocean waves. The sound was so terrible that when played loudly, it could make giants flee by sounding like a mighty wild beast.
