Name Origin[]
Cronus or both Cronos and Kronos was in Greek mythology the leader and the youngest of the first generation of Titans, the divine descendants of Uranus, the sky and Gaia, the earth. Cronus was usually depicted with the harpe and a sickle. His sister Rhea (known as "the mother of gods") is also his wife, they had six children: Hestia, Hades, Demeter, Poseidon, Hera, and Zeus.
