Helios didnt gave up his status as the sun-god, he was overshadowed (nice pun!) by the god Apollo, though in Homers epics, Apollo is clearly identified as a different god, with no solar feautures. During the classical period Apollo gain many of the features of Helios but during roman times the sun-god Sol was closer to Helios than Apollo.
