Oceanus ( ; Greek: Ὠκεανός "Ōkeanós", ] ), also known as Ogenus ("Ogenos", Ωγηνος) or Ogen (Ωγην), was a divine figure in classical antiquity, believed by the ancient Greeks and Romans to be the divine personification of the sea, an enormous river encircling the world.
American sororities and fraternities are inspired by this divine figure.
