      Captivating History what happened to pontus the god of ocean?

    • @slender9705

      "Cronus"? "Gods"? I believe you mean "Kronos" and "Titans". And Uranus is the Roman form of Ouranos, the Greek Primordial God of the Sky. Chronus is a Primordial God of Time, often mistaken for Kronos, the Youngest son of Gaia's third batch of kids. First, Gaia had the three hecatoncheires, also known as Hundred-handed Ones. Then she had the three original Cyclopes. Then The twelve Titans, Oceanus, Iapetus, Hyperion, Crius, Coeus, Rhea, Tethys, Theia, Phoebe, Themis, Mnemosyne, and Kronos, who was the youngest. And yes, It is a misconception that Atlas held up the Earth, He actually held up Ouranos' wounded celestial form, the sky.

      Don’t fall into false doctrines of devils as the Bible says who created the gods ? Is my question could it have been that the creator of everything did ? Like the Bible’s says ? These are the fallen 200 angels that fell from heaven because they ruled over man as false Gods like the book of Enoch from the Bible tells us, just because this is well put together doesn’t mean it’s true, they’re saying they created Adam and Eve man this does have a hidden twisted truth of the bigger picture but God warns us about these types of false messages that twist the truth on making themselves equal to the LORD remember some people still worship these entities today and they have agents everywhere spreading falsehood including UA-cam which they own.

    Its a real shame no one seems to discuss the other Titans, such as Koios, Krios, Hyperion and Iapetos. They were the older brothers of Kronos and, as a reward for helping their brother to _“murder”_ Ouranos (each of them held Ouranos down by one of his arms and legs), they were each given control over the four corners of the world. Koios received the north, Iapetos the west, Hyperion the east, and Krios the south.

      Actually poiseidon's trident is probably one of or the most powerful weapon in Greek mythology. Poiseidon can easily take over the world and us if he wanted to because we are more than 50% water and the earth is mostly water. If his trident ever struck earth it would cause an earthquake that would be felt so across the world and would swallow up the continents

    Chronos represents time and progression. Him stepping up is poetry to signify how the standards required to have endless progression to keep up with the endless progression of time is the key feature that sets up prioritizing in this universe....those that can apply energy to earn more accurate actions are prioritized and more accurate actions occur through a progression of time which allows a progression of information that in turns allows more accurate answers as time flows so Chronos/time/progression took the lead in this intelligently designed universe

    You completely forgot the Ourea as Gaias children. Also Kronos kastrated his father and that's why there could develop life from the blood (because there was semen in Uranos' testicles). Some versions even suggest that Aphrodite came from this instance and was born from the sea.

    Uranus imprisoned his children because he knew of the prophecy that spoke of one of his children taking his throne (Kronos), who in turn lost his throne to his youngest son Zeus (when he was also aware such a fate awaited him and he instead devoured his children to prevent or delay it). Zeus was also prophecized to lose the throne to his son had he mated with Themis, but that terrified him so he gave Themis to a mortal king as a wife, and the child that was born was Achilles.

    With the skin of ash and a tattoo of blood red his name is Kratos... boy turned man, a man turned to spartan, spartan turned to god, a mortal turned immortal. He would lay the foundation for Armageddon not only for Olympus, but the known world.

    Great video, but I'll point out to any older viewers than this is very much a "Child friendly" version of the story. It doesn't say anything that isn't accurate, but if you look into the original myth, you'll find that, ahem, certain details were left out.

      Erudito otidurE like how Aphrodite is technically the last titaness, because she was born from sea foam and Uranus' essence after Kronos castrated him. Or that fact that hades didn't choose Hell, he was forced to have it.

      Okay! That makes sense. I was about to point out that there were a LOT of inconsistencies with how it actually went. You are right. It's, for the most part, correct. Just a lot of finer details were misconstrued.

    I loved this! I had forgotten some of the finer points presented here. The animation added to the narrative.
