Can you imagine the bewilderment of Zeus's siblings when the "rock baby" appears among them, and likely just falls apart. Thinking their newest sibling was a stone creature and likely thinking it died.
Now I'm imagining them sitting around in Kronos's stomach, watching the bundle plop down in the middle of them, then unravel into a pile of rocks in a blanket. There's this very long pause, and then one of them (possibly Poseidon) goes "So, uh, do you think Dad's cheating on Mom with a mountain nymph now, or...?" and then Hades says "Oh, shut up" in an exasperated eldest-brother tone :D
Sadly, they never show the nymph that saved Zeus, Melissa. She became the first bee in Greek mythology after Kronos found out she saved Zeus as a baby and turned her first into a worm, because she couldn’t be transformed back into a nymph Zeus later made her a bee and that is why Melissa or Melisos, Malta means “Honey, Bee.” 😢
Zeus was raised in Crete inside the mountain of Idaion Andron, where he was nourished with the milk of the goat Amaltheia, and honey from Melissa's descendants. and was protected by a primal sect of ancient mystics called the Idaioi Kouretes, forefathers of the Cretans.

@@baonkang5990Sort of. One could track the passage of time by the movements of the sun, moon, and stars: requiring one to look to the sky. This was essential for timing when to sow and harvest crops.

His father Uranus was the 'heavens' itself, rendered impotent and inert when Chronos castrated him with his sickle. It's a family line of sky gods ruling the world.
If you're talking about Kronos, it's because in Greek Mythology, Gods are absolutely immortal and unkillable (I believe Zeus was the only one noted to have the power to actually kill a god other than Primordials). So the only thing he could do to get rid of them was this (or throw them into Tartarus but he didn't think of that). In other tellings this is just a form of cruel punishment.

If you know a little of Greek mythology, this is quite a recurring theme: characters often, if not always, end up fulfilling their own fate on their path to avoid it.
@@ricardobarrios6836 Yep! It’s soooo true. Even the God Of War (GOW) games are a perfect example of what happens when you try to avoid a prophecy from happening. Zeus ended up discovering a prophecy that was told to him by an oracle that he and the rest of the Olympian gods would be killed at the hands of a marked warrior. So in turn Zeus (the father of Kratos & possibly Deimos as well), sent Ares & Athena to capture Deimos. The reason why Zeus had them capture him, was that Deimos had a giant birthmark on his body and he was paranoid that Deimos was the prophesied marked to destroy Olympus, plus he didn’t want to suffer the same fate that his father Cronos and grandfather Ouranos (or Uranus) went through: being overthrown. However, as the games progressed, Deimos passes away and Kratos (who had a tattoo that was Deimos’ birthmark) ends up being the prophesied marked warrior that ended up killing the gods and destroying Olympus. Just goes to show you that in Greek Mythology (and the God Of War games), if you try to avoid a prophecy from happening, then your fate is sealed and there’s no way of escaping the inevitable.
Adding that as result of lacked a father-figure, Zeus didn't learn some important values, like be faithful to his wife. Even, maybe this fact also should influenced the other Olympians, making them basically like children with adult bodies, explaining about why the Greek pantheon is so messed.
Zeus was raised in Crete, hidden inside the mountain of Idaion Andron, where he was nourished with the milk of the goat Amaltheia, and was protected by a primal sect of ancient mystics called the Idaioi Kouretes, forefathers of the Cretans.
He did try to unalive Athena while she was still in her mother's womb. Apparently Zeus actually ate the woman herself, but then he got a massive headache. Hephastus cracked open his skull and out came Athena; dressed in full body armor with a spear. After that, Zeus left all his children alone.
1:24 not only is this version of Cronos is not an unserious Kaiju but he’s someone I wouldn’t want as an neighbor considering that he’ll eat anything that cries, even rocks.
The way that Kronos closed the entrance to Tartarus was interesting because it looked similar as to how Izanagi closed the entrance to Yama in Japanese mythology

I would love to see more of Cronos. Man was king of the Titans, thy the most op of them (maybe excluding Atlas). Watching them to battle against the likes of Poseidon and Zeus would be much more interesting than fights with that mess they show in the end of the 1 season
They meshed Kronos with some traits of Ouranos. In mythology, Ouranos the Sky, son and husband of Gaia, was the one who imprisoned Cyclopses and Hecatoncheirs in the very Earth (Gaia). The animation also implies that Kronos was a terrible god, even though Kronos was the one who introduced agriculture to the people and his rule was called a Golden Age for a reason. Furthermore, he didn't keep the sickle he used to castrate his father for he threw it away after.
It’s cronos own fault he caused his own downfall including the titans he eats his own children who were babies who were innocent and making poor rhea to watch again and again that’s why her and Gaia did what they did and what his nightmare came true what ever punishment Zeus gave him i bet it’s worse like atlas who have the world in chains.
Kronos, truely an menacing foe. Maybe we might seem him in season 3 since it is implied that the titans will return when, you know, Gaia unleashed typhon. Just wishful thinking
As an ΈΛΛΗΝ(Greek), in the original myth, after the last battle against the giants and the Olympians defeating the titans, they locked them into Tartarus by scattering them into pieces inside adamadine doors. When the war was finally over, ZEUS, POSEIDON AND HADES drew lots to decide the realms and positions of power. The Fates decided for ZEUS to be King of the Heavens and the Gods, POSEIDON King of the Seas, and HADES King of the underworld and the invisible realm. Then ZEUS decided, that because during the war, the titans Helios, Gaia, Ocean, Mnemosyne, Thetis, Theia remained neutral and did not take part in the war with neither side, so ZEUS decided that they can keep their respective places in the universe. In some variations of the myth, Helios is mentioned helping the Olympians against the titans/giants

@@lightmohamed5700 No in the myths God's are immortal and unkillable even by others they can hurt but not die his children because there immortal were completely stuck in his stumach
He received a prophecy that his children would usurp him like he did to his father (at his mother's request). In his efforts to avoid his fate, he ensured it by becoming a tyrant. The children did not die, but were imprisoned within him and grew to full adulthood. They were freed by Zeus in the end, making the original Olympian patheon.
I've got a question on something in particular. Do you any soft foods outside of soups, ice cream, pudding, or anything else like them that does not need to require any much force in chewing that would serve as lunch and dinner? See I'm going to have my wisdom teeth removed on the 13th this month and my mouth is going to be sore for a couple of days depending on me.
This story so much similar To Hindu god Krishna . Krishna's Uncle- Kansa killed 7 child of his sisters because of prophecy that her child will kill him un future and Krishna 8th son born and later he killed him .
According to the original myth, as gods, they could not die, so they simply spent their entire lives in their father's stomach until Zeus (and Metis in some versions) gave him a potion that caused him to vomit them up.
What do you mean? Zeus was the last child of Chronos and Rhea. Hades and Poseidon were already eaten by chronos by then. It goes Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades then Poseidon, eaten in that order.
Yes. His father Uranus (the heavens) imprisoned his children within Gaea (in her womb), but this allowed her to conspire with her children while Uranus was away. Kronos was gifted an adamant sickle from her for being bold enough to agree to her plans, which he used to castrate Uranus when he next 'lay' with Gaea. Uranus was rendered impotent and inert for all of Greek myth after that, to my knowledge. Kronos ruled well, but the 3 Fates prophesied that he would be usurped by his children like he had done to his own father. So he also imprisoned his children, but within himself so they could not conspire with others like he had. They did not die though, but grew into adults within him. However, his actions to avoid his fate made him a tyrant that needed to be overthrown, thus ensuring the prophecy. Zeus was the youngest of his siblings, who were all freed by him.
Take a moment to appreciate on how they actually did the story of Cronus devouring his children, and him getting tricked into eating a rock that was suppose to be baby Zeus by his wife Rhea. But it was not settled when he was born, Rhea hid Zeus in Mount Ida, watched by a goat, a golden and Rhea's servants, not really Gaia, the cave of the mountain he was in was apart of Gaia yeah, but wasn't really secured and protected by her. Also that was not the reason Cronus ate his kids, the reason he devoured his children (Hades, Poseidon, Hestia, Demeter and Hera) cause Uranus (his father) told him one day that his children would take over his throne, just like how Cronus did to Uranus after his castration. Also Cronus is not that big/tall, neither are the Titans, Rhea is considered a titan too you know, she's one of the 12 titans, and the daughter of Gaia... It's a misconception of people mixing the Titans with the Giants, another deities the gods with went to war with, called the Gigantomachy, even Heracles/Hercules took part in it (Spoiler alert). But yet this show claimed the after the Gigantomachy starts immediately after the Titanomachy, which is not true. It starts centuries later when many more gods were around, oh and also the show claims the last Titan's blood created the Giants, but in the myth the Giants were sometimes said to be just the children of Gaia, or children of Gaia and their father was either Uranus after his castration or Tartarus. Also Cronus had nothing to do with the Giants, neither he banished them. Glad to see he is getting recognition of his sickles, or well mainly his scythe or harpe but his sickles yes. Sadly we don't see Zeus saving his siblings, so I'll explain it here for anyone wondering. When Zeus was growing, Rhea telling him how bad his father was, Zeus decided to seek revenge to save his siblings. So Zeus put some drug in a cup, disguised himself as a servant, passed the drink to Cronus, soon as his stomach was ill, Cronus puked up the stone (aka the Omphalos stone), Hades, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, and Hestia. But this show states Zeus killed Cronus to save his siblings, which is inaccurate, deities can't die, their immortal. But there was story that after Cronus puking then passing out, Zeus tried to behead Cronus with his sickle or scythe or harpe, but didn't have the strength to. But during the Titanomachy the gods did chop Cronus into peaces, then threw him and the other Titans into Tartarus. Oh and the deities in Greek myth are suppose to have golden ichor running through their vein.
This series actually shows a convincing explanation on how Chronos was able to mistake a rock for Baby Zeus.

Kronos eating his kids is from real Greek mythology, GoW 2 just adapted this story, and this series adapted too
So we’re gonna ignore the fact that Hades and Poseidon are older than Zeus?
I mean, the video didn't claimed he was the oldest
@@jessnalulila5552 Do you think that Cronus will be furious with Rhea for allowing the Olympians to screw up the world?
If Zeus's father is a titan and his wife is normal size .... how?
He likely has the ability to alter his size in order to both reproduce and then devour a full infant.
Rhea is also a titan, but for some reason the animators made her human size
Titans are the same size as the gods which is normally human sized. It's a common misconception to make them gigantic
Age of mythology game has correct representation of Greek gods
Take a moment to appreciate on how they actually did the story of Cronus devouring his children, and him getting tricked into eating a rock that was suppose to be baby Zeus by his wife Rhea. But it was not settled when he was born, Rhea hid Zeus in Mount Ida, watched by a goat, a golden and Rhea's servants, not really Gaia, the cave of the mountain he was in was apart of Gaia yeah, but wasn't really secured and protected by her. Also that was not the reason Cronus ate his kids, the reason he devoured his children (Hades, Poseidon, Hestia, Demeter and Hera) cause Uranus (his father) told him one day that his children would take over his throne, just like how Cronus did to Uranus after his castration. Also Cronus is not that big/tall, neither are the Titans, Rhea is considered a titan too you know, she's one of the 12 titans, and the daughter of Gaia... It's a misconception of people mixing the Titans with the Giants, another deities the gods with went to war with, called the Gigantomachy, even Heracles/Hercules took part in it (Spoiler alert). But yet this show claimed the after the Gigantomachy starts immediately after the Titanomachy, which is not true. It starts centuries later when many more gods were around, oh and also the show claims the last Titan's blood created the Giants, but in the myth the Giants were sometimes said to be just the children of Gaia, or children of Gaia and their father was either Uranus after his castration or Tartarus. Also Cronus had nothing to do with the Giants, neither he banished them. Glad to see he is getting recognition of his sickles, or well mainly his scythe or harpe but his sickles yes. Sadly we don't see Zeus saving his siblings, so I'll explain it here for anyone wondering. When Zeus was growing, Rhea telling him how bad his father was, Zeus decided to seek revenge to save his siblings. So Zeus put some drug in a cup, disguised himself as a servant, passed the drink to Cronus, soon as his stomach was ill, Cronus puked up the stone (aka the Omphalos stone), Hades, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, and Hestia. But this show states Zeus killed Cronus to save his siblings, which is inaccurate, deities can't die, their immortal. But there was story that after Cronus puking then passing out, Zeus tried to behead Cronus with his sickle or scythe or harpe, but didn't have the strength to. But during the Titanomachy the gods did chop Cronus into peaces, then threw him and the other Titans into Tartarus. Oh and the deities in Greek myth are suppose to have golden ichor running through their vein.
