KRONOS

  • Parentage- Uranus & Gaea

  • Wife- Rhea (Sister)

  • King of the Titans

The youngest of the Titans, he was the only one willing to help his mom Gaea overthrow Uranus. In Hesiod's depiction of the Titans, they all took on a human form and the Titans were beings human as well. After getting Uranus drunk at the family table, Kronos took his sickle and chopped Uranus' phallus off and threw it across the world. Uranus then retreated back to the heavens, and it is said in one story that his phallus' blood created monsters and when it landed in the sea near Cyprus, the goddess Aphrodite was born.

WRATH OF THE TITANS

During the following clip, you will view a scene of destruction and chaos from Kronos as he moves across land. I took notice to the depiction of Kronos having the body of what could resemble a human, but is rather a mass of destruction filled with fire and magma. Also in this clip you will see hints of Zeus as he is almost powerless against the Titan without his thunderbolts.
