  1. chronos and umm whats her name


  2. Zeus was the child of Cronus and Rhea (both titans), and the youngest of his siblings.

    Cronus and Rhea were both children of Gaia, the earth, and Ouranos (Uranus), the sky. Uranus was both Gaia's husband and son (born asexually since Gaia was the first god to come forth from Chaos).

    Zeus was one inbred imaginary being!

  3. Kronos and Rhea!

  4. They were Cronus and Rhea, who were Titans, children of Uranus and Gaia.  Cronus deposed and castrated his father and therefore was afraid that a son of his would do the same to him, so when Rhea gave birth to children, he swallowed them.  After five such incidents, Rhea hid her sixth child (Zeus) and gave Cronus a stone wrapped in swaddling cloths, and he swallowed it instead.  Of course Zeus grew up to fulfill his father's fears.

  5. Cronus and Rhea
