Names of the divine beings of 82r

In my interpretation all the waters flow into the sea, except the one on the bottom left (large left Nymph) which is hard to make out as such, but which flows south to the next sea. They are not waterfalls, but rivers and bosphori. Their motifs say things about how the water travels on its way to the sea but generally they are neither scaled nor oriented in line with reality but act as mnemonics for filling in details of the land around the water.

The Aphrodites, as you have identified them, seem acceptable to me, as it appears that cults were located in the vicinity. They would have come from the south. 

This article was interesting, especially the lack of Aquarius and Libra in the zodiac, not a perfect match with the vms, but nevertheless intriguing.
