While Poseidon drew to himself the iEolian family, Apollo the Dorian, Athene the Ionian, there was one more powerful god for all the sons of Hellen, Dorians, uEolians, lonians, Achjseans, the Panhellenic Zeus. That Zeus meant sky we might have guessed, perhaps, even if no traces of iJie word had been preserved in Sanskrit.
The prayer of the Athenians — lp *A6rjvai»v kcu t^f {' Rain, rain, dear Zeus, on the land of the Athenians and on the fields ! ') is clearly addressed to the sky, t
...hough the mere addition of * dear,* in * O dear Zeus,' is sufficient to change the sky into a personal being.
The original meaning of ZeUs might equally have been guessed from such words as Dioamiia, portents in the sky, i.e. thunder, lightning, rain; Diipitea^ swollen by rain, lit, fallen from heaven ; ^ndwa, in the open air, or at midday ; eUdtoay calm, lit. well-skyed, and others. In Latin, too, avyb Jove fHgido^ under » Hor. Od. i. 1, 25. Pott, EL Forsch.
