Cronus had been warned that one of his children would depose him.To prevent this from happening Cronus swallowed his newborn children Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades and Poseidon, but his wife Rhea wrapped a stone in swaddling clothes in place of the infant Zeus. Cronus thinking it was the newborn baby swallowed the stone. Meanwhile Rhea had her baby taken to Crete to be raised by some nymphs.

When Zeus had grown into a young man he forced Cronus to vomit the five children he had previously swallowed. Then Zeus led the revolt against his father and the dynasty of the Titans, defeated and then banished them.
