In Greek mythology and religion, Eurus (Ancient Greek: Εὖρος, romanized: Euros, lit. 'east wind') is the god and personification of the east wind, although sometimes he is also said to be southeast specifically.[1] He is one of the four principal wind gods, the Anemoi, alongside Boreas (north wind), Zephyrus (west wind) and Notus (south wind). Eurus is featured rarely in ancient literature, appearing together with his three brothers as part of a whole if at all, and virtually has no individual mythology of his own. Often he is excluded entirely, leaving Boreas, Zephyrus and Notus to represent the Anemoi. His Roman equivalent is the god Vulturnus.
