    Proteus was, in Greek legend, Poseidon's herdsman, an old man and a prophet, famous for his power of assuming different shapes at will. The phrase "As many shapes as Proteus" and the adjective "Protean" mean ever-changing, versatile, ready to take on different aspects.

    Legend says that Proteus lived in a vast cave, and his custom was to count up his herds of sea calves at noon, then to sleep. There was no way of catching him but by stealing upon him at this time and binding him, otherwise he would elude anyone by a rapid change of shape.
