In Greek mythology, the Nereids (/ˈnɪəriɪdz/ NEER-ee-idz; Greek: Νηρηΐδες Nereides, sg. Νηρηΐς Nereis) are sea nymphs (female spirits of sea waters), the 50 daughters of Nereus and Doris, sisters to Nerites. They often accompany Poseidon, the god of the sea, and can be friendly and helpful to sailors, like the Argonauts in their search for the Golden Fleece. | |wketx=In Greek mythology, the Nereids (/ˈnɪəriɪdz/ NEER-ee-idz; Greek: Νηρηΐδες Nereides, sg.

Nereids are particularly associated with the Aegean Sea, where they dwelt with their father Nereus in the depths within a golden palace. The most notable of them are Thetis, wife of Peleus and mother of Achilles; Amphitrite, wife of Poseidon and mother of Triton; and Galatea, the vain love interest of the Cyclops Polyphemus. | Nereids are particularly associated with the Aegean Sea, where they dwelt with their father Nereus in the depths within a golden palace.

In Homer's Iliad XVIII, when Thetis cries out in sympathy for the grief of Achilles for the slain Patroclus, her sisters appear. The Nereid Opis is mentioned in Virgil's Aeneid. She is called by the goddess Diana to avenge the death of the Amazon-like female warrior Camilla. Diana gives Opis magical weapons for revenge on Camilla's killer, the Etruscan Arruns. Opis sees and laments Camilla's death and shoots Arruns in revenge as directed by Diana. | In Homer's Iliad XVIII, when Thetis cries out in sympathy for the grief of Achilles for the slain Patroclus, her sisters appear.

Nereïden (griechisch Νηρεΐδες, Νηρηίδες, Einzahl die Nereïde Νηρηίς, e und i getrennt gesprochen) sind in der griechischen Mythologie die 50 Töchter des Nereus und der Doris. In Platons Kritias hingegen taucht als Anzahl 100 auf, mit der Einschränkung, dass die Anzahl als vermutet bezeichnet wird. | Nereïden (griechisch Νηρεΐδες, Νηρηίδες, Einzahl die Nereïde Νηρηίς, e und i getrennt gesprochen) sind in der griechischen Mythologie die 50 Töchter des Nereus und der Doris.
