Best Answer

Hera, Zeus, Demeter and Poseidon were the original Olympians; the sons and daughters of Rhea and Kronus who had been Queen and King of the Titans.

Ares and Hephaestus are the son of Zeus and Hera.

Apollo and Artemis are the twin children of Zeus and Leto.

Hermes is the son of Zeus and Maia.

Athena was born of the head of Zeus, her mother said to be Metis who Zeus swallowed.

Dionysus the son of Zeus and Semele.

Aphrodite the daughter of Zeus and Dione, or the daughter of Ouranus who fathered Kronus.

Hestia, who stepped down as a Olympian for Dionysus; a sister of Zeus.

Hades, who while a brother of Zeus and King of the Underworld, was never numbered among the Olympians.
