URANUS Uranus is one of the ancient gods in Greek mythology. He ruled the universe and his name refers to the deity of the sky and the sky specifically, which the Greeks described as a bronze dome dotted with stars. Uranus is one of the first-born gods, where they came from is not very clear. Either from nowhere or from some of the origins attributed to it, this information is a bit vague. Some accounts indicate that Uranus, for example, is the birth-genetic son of Gaia, of whom he was also the husband. Gaia is the goddess who personifies the earth and fertility. In some stories, Gaia, who is the mother of all living things, conceived him without a father. In others, the father of Uranus is Aether or Chaos. It is also told in the stories of Higino that he is the son of Hemera and Ether, brother of Talasa, the goddess of the sea and also of Gea or Gaia. But in early mythological history, many claim that the information is scant and confusing. After Uranus, the personification of heaven,...

TITAN GEA In Greek mythology, Gaea or Gaia, the primordial earth or mother goddess was one of the deities that ruled the universe before the Titans existed. In the creation myth, chaos was above all. He was made of the Void, of the Mass and of the Darkness in confusion; and then the earth in the form of Gaea came into existence. After appearing from the cais, Gaia gave birth to Ponto (the sea), Uranus (the sky) and the Ourea (the mountains). She had these children without the need for male intervention of any kind. This is the mother earth from which all the natural divinities of the planet are born, it was born before Eros (love) and after Chaos.

Greek Mythology »Titans and Titanides In Greek mythology, they were a race of powerful gods who ruled during the legendary Golden Age (initial stage of the ages of man in which he lived in an ideal state or utopia, when humanity was pure and immortal). The titans were twelve according to Hesiod; although Apollodorus adds a thirteenth: Dione, split from the titanide Tea. The twelve titans of the first generation were led by the youngest, Cronos, who overthrew his father Uranus at the urging of his mother, Gaea. The Titans preceded the twelve Olympian gods, who, guided by Zeus, ended up overthrowing them in the Titanomachy (‘war of the titans’). Most of them were then imprisoned in Tartarus, the deepest region of the underworld. Cronos: Last son of the twelve titans. Cronos was the only one who responded to his mother's call, when Gaia, to end her own slavery, decided to rebel against Uranus. Cronos rebelled against his father, beheaded him, excluded him from power and seized his suc...

Greco-Roman myths Greek mythology is the set of myths and legends belonging to the culture of Ancient Greece, dealing with its gods and heroes, the nature of the world, the origins and the meaning of its own cults and ritual practices. Modern researchers turn to and study myths in an attempt to shed light on ancient Greece's religious and political institutions and civilization, as well as to better understand the nature of myth-making itself. Greek mythology appears explicitly in an extensive collection of stories and implicitly in figurative arts such as painted pottery and votive offerings. Greek myths attempt to explain the origins of the world and detail the lives and adventures of a wide variety of gods, heroes, and other mythological creatures. These stories were originally spread in an oral poetic tradition, although today the myths are known mainly from Greek literature. Myths were also preserved in Homeric hymns, in fragments of epic poetry from the Trojan cycle, in lyric...
