Featured Article

Cronus (or Kronos; Greek: Κρόνος; Krónos) was the son of Gaia and Uranus in Greek mythology. His wife was the Titaness Rhea. He was the leader of the Titans and the god of agriculture and sky. His Roman counterpart is Saturn. He also is known to be the lord of time..

Cronus was born to Gaia and Uranus as their last Titan child. He was asked by Gaia to kill Uranus for imprisoning their children, the Hecatonchires and the Cyclopes, in the depths of Tartarus. He was given a sickle (named the scythe) with which he used to castrate Uranus when he was going to have intercourse with Gaia. He then became King of Gods.
