Chronos: My Most Famous Greek God

Chronos, the god of time, was the father of the most famous Greek god Zeus. Chronos is one of the most powerful gods in Greek mythology. Chronos was a titan and he was one of the original gods( Atsma). Chronos was a very interesting god who I think people don't really even know about. Chronos also had a lot of cool powers that I think people should know about. I will tell you a lot about the character I think is now my favorite Greek god. Chronos is a very cool god who should really have a movie or something made for. In this paper I will tell you a lot more about my god Chronos. The first thing I will talk about is chronos’ life .

He is still relevant because he's the god of time and time is still relevant today. Also, he represents how you can be so powerful and then fall from greatness like the Roman empire did back in the olden days. He is also still relevant because he can relate to people who want to just control everything and think that nothing will happen to them. Chronos is also the father of all the Olympians who are the most popular Greek gods, he is a God that the only reason people know of him is when he gets overthrown( Atsma). Also he's a relatable character because of all the lessons you can learn from the stories of him. You could learn to make sure you’re very careful when you have that much power, and you don't want to be overcome by power and greed. Also he is still relevant because he can relate to people who are in power like a president or a dictator. He is kind of a Greek version of a dictator because of what he did and how he was overthrown. People can really learn and think about how he is very similar to some of the most famous rulers in the history of the world. Chronos is just a god who can really relate to what people of power think and what worries they might have. I feel bad for him because he is a much more interesting character than what people know of. These are the ways that Chronos is still relatable today and why he is a person that you can learn a lot of lessons from. …show more content…
Chronos isn't really known because of how popular his son Zeus is. If you ask someone on the street to name some Greek gods and goddesses they will most definitely say Zeus. Most people won't even know who Chronos is if you mention him. I think that Chronos is very underrated for a character who is really an essential part of Greek mythology. Without Chronos there wouldn't be a Zeus of any of the Olympians at all, also without him you might not even know about Greek mythology.( Atsma) If you think that Chronos isn't really important, think of this Chronos is the only reason there is Olympians and really the whole religion. I personally think that after learning all about Chronos, who at first I never even knew about is one of the most interesting characters that i've seen in a while. All the information that i've found and the significance of Chronos makes me wonder why he isn't as well known as Zeus. I really wish that there would be a book made about just cool facts and cool stories of Chronos. Also I wish we knew what he did for so long when he ruled over the earth. In conclusion i think that Chronos is a good character who people should know more about and who should be a more important
