CRAP !!

Greek myth can be quite confusing. Cronus was the youngest of the Titans, and yet he was their leader - while in most traditions it was the eldest son who would lead his siblings. Uranus and Gaia were the father and mother of the first generation of Greek deities - the Titans, as in the Judeo-Christian tradition Adam and Eve were the first men upon earth. Cronus was one of the many offspring of Uranus and Gaia, and his mother incited him to rebel against his father. Using a flint sickle, Cronus castrated his father (ouch!) and took control of the divine dwelling. But history repeated itself: Cronus' wife Rhea incited their youngest son Zeus to rebellion, and Zeus and his Olympians surpassed the Titans. Don't confuse Cronus the Titan (responsible for the harvest) with Chronos the personification of time (as the Romans later did: they merged the two into Saturn.
