Cronus, in Greek mythology, was born to the primordial deities Uranus (the sky) and Gaia (the earth). He was the youngest of the Titans and played a crucial role in the overthrow of his father, Uranus, driven by a desire for power. Cronus later became the ruler of the Titans, but his reign was marked by fear of being overthrown by his own children, leading to his infamous act of swallowing them at birth. This cycle of betrayal and power struggles is central to the mythological narrative surrounding Cronus and his lineage.
