The Ancient Greeks believed that in the beginning, the world was in a state of nothingness, which they called chaos. Suddenly, from light, came Gaia (mother earth) and Uranus (the sky) along with other old gods(called primordials) like Tatartus (the pit of eternal damnation) and Pontus (the primordial god of the oceans). Gaia and Uranus had 6 sets of twins. The most important of the 12 children were Kronos and Rhea. Gaia gave birth to some monsters called cyclops and the hundred handed ones. Uranus disliked the monsters, so he threw them in Tatartus. Gaia, angered by Uranus, sought revenge on Uranus. Gaia used her son Kronos, who chopped off Uranus' genitals. Kronos threw Uranus into the ocean. From the blood of his genitals, came the goddess of love and beauty—Aphrodite. Kronos married his sister Rhea and gave birth to 6 children, who were called the gods.Kronos, who was afraid of a prophecy delivered to him a while ago(which stated that one day his children will cut him up), swallowed each of his children each time they were born. Rhea did not like this, so she saved Zeus and gave Kronos a rock to eat instead. Zeus was raised by a centaur named Chiron, who is also the son of Kronos, in a mountain cave.When Zeus was old enough, he tricked Kronos into drinking a mixture of wine and mustard. Kronos vomited up the rest of the gods, who, being immortal, had been growing up completely undigested in Kronos' stomach.Zeus and other gods, then had a big war with the Titans.Zeus won and banished Kronos to Tartarus. Zeus was from then on the leader of the gods. Man was created by Titan Prometheus, who did not participate in the war. Thanks for watching. #ASMR #AncientGreece #Myth ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ►socials...
