Gaia
Gaia, Ouranos and Pontos were the first
gods. Gaia is greek for earth. Ouranos was heaven and Pontos the
sea. Gaia and Ouranos, her brother, got 18 children: Twelf Titans, three Cyclops
and three Hecatocheirs. Cronos and Rhea were the altest titans.
Ouranos put his children in the Tartarus, the underworld, after
having got an oracel. This oracel says: 'Ouranos, one of your
children will defeat you and will take your place. Gaia liberated
her children and Cronos became king of the
gods.
