The youngest of Uranus and Gaia's 12 titan offspring was named Cronus. Six of his children: Zeus, Hestia, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, and Demeter were born to him and his elder sister Rhea. Cronus was closely linked to time, especially destructive time.

Cronus' father, Uranus, was a despicable ruler. The giants with one eye and one hundred hands were imprisoned by Uranus in one of the most famous Greek stories. They were Gaia's sons and Cronus' brothers. This action severely incensed Gaia, who convinced Cronus to overthrow his father. Uranus was restrained by Cronus and his four brothers, Hyperion, Crius, Coeus, and Iapetus. He was then castrated by Cronus using a sickle. As a result, Cronus ruled over the universe.

In the end, Cronus' leadership abilities lagged below those of his father. When Cronus assumed power, both Uranus and Gaia foretold that one of Cronus's sons would ultimately depose him. As a result, each time Rhea gave birth, Cronus would swallow the baby. When Zeus was born, Rhea was able to replace him with a rock, which Cronus mistakenly believed to be his child and ingested. Then, Rhea used some nymphs to conceal Zeus. When Zeus reached adulthood, he came back and made Cronus throw up his siblings. The Titanomachy, a significant conflict between the Olympian gods and the Titans, started at that point. In the end, Zeus and the Olympians triumphed.

The celestial axis and the North are represented by the Titan god Coeus. In addition, he was considered to be the Titan deity of knowledge, reason, curiosity, and foresight. He has a reputation for prophesying with his wife, which they both passed on to their grandson Apollo. One of the four brothers who helped Cronus depose Uranus was Coeus. While Cronus castrated him, he held one of the sky's corners, which stands for Uranus.

Together with his brothers, Coeus was sent into Tartarus. He went crazy down there and wanted to flee. He managed to escape his chains, but Cerberus, the guard dog with many heads, stopped him.

The oldest child of Uranus and Gaia was named Hyperion. He wed Theia, his sister, and the two of them had three kids. These were Semele, the moon goddess, Eos, the dawn goddess, and Helios, the sun god. Later Greek mythology featured important roles for his sons and daughters. The Greek name Hyperion means "one who watches from above."

The eastern pillar that supported the sky was worshipped as the god Hyperion. He also served as the deity of heavenly light. He is thought to have regulated the days and months by putting the sun and moon's cycles in order. He, his wife, and his kids all have a connection to sight and light. They are perceived as continuously watching. Later mythology frequently refers to Helios as a witness to any events that occur on Earth.

Iapetus was a different offspring of Gaia and Uranus, which is one of the 12 Greek Titans in Greek mythology. Prometheus, Epimetheus, Atlas, and Menoitios are some of the titan children they had together after getting married to Themis. Prometheus was renowned for supporting Zeus in the Titanomachy, as well as for having given birth to the first men and fire. Epimetheus, who was renowned for being a bit of a fool, later wed Pandora. In the era of the Olympians, Atlas was renowned as the titan who supported the sky.

Iapetus was the deity of aging, dying, and perhaps even skill. Mortality and craftsmanship are significant since Prometheus, in particular, his offspring, frequently created and crafted things, including the first mortal humans. In addition, Iapetus was the deity of the west, where he supported the sky. Later, Titan, his son, would take over in this capacity.

The fourth and final titan to assist Cronus in overthrowing their father Uranus was Hyperion. His father was restrained by him from the west. Hyperion was detained in Tartarus when Cronus was overthrown by Zeus.

Uranus and Gaia had a son named Oceanus. The Potamoi, a race of 3000 men, and the Oceanids, a race of 3000 daughters, some of whom gave their names to regions of the earth and rivers, were born as a result of his marriage to his sister Tethys. Achelous River, Alcmaeon, Alpheus, and Scamander, who is renowned for supporting Trojan during the Trojan War, were some of the River Gods. Metis, Eurynome, and Doris were Ocanids.

The god of the ocean and the source of all freshwater was Oceanus. He was said to orbit the disc like the earth. He was frequently portrayed as a long-tailed serpent or fish.

Oceanus is distinct from his fellow giant brothers in that he abstained from Uranus's overthrow and castration. Additionally, he was not a part of the Titanomachy in which Zeus deposed Cronus. He wasn't, therefore, cast into Tartarus. One of Heracles' 12 labors also includes a mention of Oceanus. Heracles uses the golden cup of Helios, which the god provides him, to get to Geryon's island home and take all of his animals.

God of: The ocean, rivers, and freshwater

Uranus and Gaia had a daughter named Rhea. She was also the Titan Cronus's sister and wife. The six great Olympian gods Zeus, Hestia, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, and Demeter were born to them together. She was referred to as the Titans' queen and the goddess of mountains, motherhood, and fertility.

Her most well-known story involves her husband Cronus tricking her. A prophecy that Cronus will also be overthrown by his offspring was given to him after he overthrew his father, Uranus. People who are vulnerable to a prophecy believe they can change their fate, just like in much Greek mythology.

Cronus would so devour his offspring each time Rhea became pregnant and gave birth. Rhea had had enough by the time she was about to give birth to Zeus, her sixth child. Cronus was duped by her into consuming a rock in place of the kid. Zeus was then hidden until he reached adulthood. When he got back, he battled his father, saved his siblings, and ascended to the throne.

Rhea ruled as the earth goddess during the time of the Olympian gods, rarely interfering with their affairs. She was, nevertheless, always willing to provide her sons and daughters guidance and advice.

Tethys, the smallest child of the celestial Uranus and the earthly Gaia, was associated with nursing and freshwater. Oceanus, his brother, was her husband. She had numerous offspring who later rose to prominence as minor deities and gods. The Oceanids, a group of 3000 sea nymphs, Metis, Zeus's first wife, Electra, the mother of Iris, the rainbow goddess, and finally the Harpies were also present. It was thought that she was the source of all pure water.

Rhea sent Zeus to Tethys to be kept secure after she delivered him from Cronus, his father. Zeus was cared for by Tethys until he came back to exact retribution on Cronus. Even though she was not Zeus' biological mother, she nurtured him as one and protected him from harm.

Tethys and Oceanus, in contrast to many of the other Titans, were not involved in the overthrow of Uranus, the Titanomachy, or the overthrow of Cronus. She and her spouse so continued to play the roles of goddesses throughout time. She took care of all the aquatic animals, including fish, dolphins, and other monsters and creatures of the deep.

Goddess of: Nursing, Freshwater, the rivers

Children: The Potamoi, Oceanids, and the Harpies

While Asteria was the goddess of the stars, the Greeks also revered her.

Her daughter Leto was Zeus's lover, and when she became pregnant with the twins Apollo and Artemis, Zeus's wife attacked her nonstop. On the island of Delos, where she eventually found sanctuary, she gave birth to a boy and a daughter.

One of Themis' daughters, Phoebe, was given the Oracle of Delphi, which she later gave to her grandson, Apollo. After obtaining it, she is symbolized by the Delphic Oracle. She is also in charge of the brightness everywhere, as her name also denotes brightness, in addition to this emblem. She is revered by the Romans as well because she is the Greek equivalent of Diana, the Roman deity.

Greek gods known as the Muses encouraged artists, musicians, poets, and dancers to create and present their best work.

She was also regarded as being crucial to the continuation of oral history because she was the goddess of memory and remembering.
