The only reference to an elder god eating his children is that of Kronos. Kronos castrated and supplanted his father, Ouranos, and took his place as the ruler of the heavens. As he fell, Ouranos prophesied that Kronos would meet a similar fate at the hands of one of his children. Ever mindful of this, after the birth of the Hundred-handed Ones and the Cyclopes, he began to devour his children at birth, thus preventing any of them from usurping him. Rhea was mortified at this behaviour and finally, to save her youngest son, fed Kronos a large rock wrapped in swaddling instead of the infant Zeus, thus fulfilling the prophecy. Zeus avoided his fate when Prometheus informed him that Themis, one of his many pursuits, would have a son greater than his father. Zeus then wasted no time in marrying her to a mortal.
