The youngest of the \b \cf4 \ATXht12014 Titans\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , called Saturn by the Romans. He
was the son of \b \cf4 \ATXht12102 Uranus\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 and \b \cf4 \ATXht10700 Gaea\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 (the Sky and the Earth), husband of \b \cf4 \ATXht11800 Rhea\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , and father of \b \cf4 \ATXht10818 Hestia\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , \b \cf4 \ATXht11 Demeter\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , \b \cf4 \ATXht3 Hera\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , \b \cf4 \ATXht1 Hades\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , \b \cf4 \ATXht5 Poseidon\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , and \b \cf4 \ATXht8 Zeus\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 . He castrated and killed his father Uranus. Afraid that his
children would become more powerful than him, he devoured them as soon as they were born, but Rhea managed to save the last, Zeus. She gave birth to him in secret on the island of Crete and then gave Cronus a stone wrapped in cloth to swallow. Once he w
as fully grown, Zeus forced his father to vomit up all the children he had swallowed and then seized power from him, putting down the revolt of the \b \cf4 \ATXht1001 Titans\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 , Cronus' brothers. The Titans were all cast into \b \cf4 \ATXht12003 Tartarus\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 but Cronus was given lordship over the Island of the Blessed.
