Cronus (Ancient Greek Κρόνος, Krónos), also calle Cronos or Kronos or Kronus, was the leader and the youngest of the first generation of Titans, divine descendants of Gaia, the earth, and Uranos, the sky. He overthrew his father and ruled during the mythological Golden Age, until he was overthrown by his own son and imprisoned in Tartarus or sent to rule the paradise of the Elysian Fields.
