W mitologii rzymskiej Saturn (łac. Saturnus) to staroitalski bóg rolnictwa i
zasiewów.
Małżonką Saturna była Ops.
Później Saturn był utożsamiany z greckim Kronosem, a Ops z grecką Reą.
Jowisz miał strącić z tronu Saturna i zamieszkał w Italii,
gdzie zapanował wówczas wiek złoty.
W roku 497 p.n.e. zbudowano na wzgórzu kapitolińskim świątynię Saturna,
prawdopodobnie na miejscu starego ołtarza, gdzie składano ofiary z ludzi.
Od tego czasu obchodzono święto ku czci Saturna - Saturnalia.

Kronos - w mitologii greckiej był synem Ziemi i Nieba - Gai i Uranosa,
najmłodszy z Tytanów.
W obronie swych sióstr i braci pozbawił ojca władzy nad światem.
Jego żoną była jedna z tytanid Rea. Z ich związku urodziło się sześcioro
dzieci,
ale ponieważ przepowiedziano mu, że jedno z dzieci pozbawi go władzy połykał je
zaraz
po urodzeniu. Rei udało się uratować najmłodszego Zeusa, który strącił ojca do
Tartaru.
Świątynia Kronosa znajdowała się w Atenach. W Olimpii miał poświęcone wzgórze,
a na Krecie składano mu ofiary z dzieci.

The hecatonchires or hecatoncheires ("the hundred-handed") were figures of
Greek mythology,
giants with a hundred arms and fifty heads. They were children of Gaia and
Uranus.
Their father threw them into Tartarus, but they were rescued by Cronus and
helped him
overthrow Uranus by castrating him. After helping Cronus, he threw them back
into Tartarus,
where they remained, guarded by Campe, until Zeus rescued them. During the War
of
the Titans, they threw rocks one-hundred at a time at the Titans.

In Greek mythology, Titanomachy was the war between the Titans (fighting from
Mt. Othrys)
and the Olympians. It is also known as the Battle of Titans or Titan War.
The war was foretold to Cronus by Gaia and Uranus because Cronus had refused to
restore justice after his father was dethroned.
The Titans were led by Cronus and included: Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion,
Iapetus, Thia,
Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, Tethys, Prometheus, Epimetheus, Atlas,
Menoetius.
The Olympians were led by Zeus and included: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades,
Poseidon,
the Hecatonchires, the Gigantes and the Cyclopes.
Having won victory after ten years of war, the Olympians divided the spoils
between
themselves, granting dominion of the sky to Zeus, the sea to Poseidon, and the
Underworld
to Hades. They then shut the defeated Titans within Tartarus. However, since
during the war
the female titans (the titanesses: Thia, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, and
Tethys)
remained neutral, they were not punished by Zeus. The Hecatonchires remained
guard over
them until, in time, Zeus set all but Atlas free.

Oceanus or Okeanos refers to the ocean, which the Greeks and Romans regarded as
a river circling the world. In Greek mythology this world-ocean was personified
as a Titan, a son of Uranus and Gaia. In ancient Greek reliefs this Titan is
often
depicted as having the upper body of a muscular man with a long beard and
horns,
and the lower torso of a serpent. (Compare Typhon.)
Oceanus' consort is his sister Tethys, and from their union came the ocean
nymphs,
also known as the three-thousand Oceanids, and all the rivers of the world.

Some scholars believe he originally represented all bodies of salt water,
including the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, the two largest bodies
the ancient Greeks knew of. However, as geography became more accurate,
Oceanus came to represent the stranger, more unknown waters of the Atlantic
Ocean
(also called the Ocean Sea) while Poseidon ruled over the Mediterranean.
In most variations of the war between the Titans and the Olympians
("Titanomachy"),
Oceanus, along with Prometheus, and Themis, did not take the side of their
fellow Titans against the Olympians, but instead withdrew from the conflict.
In most variations of this myth Oceanus also did not side with Cronus in his
revolt
against Uranus.

Afterwards the Hecatonchires became the guards of the gates of Tartarus.
In the Iliad there is a story, found nowhere else in mythology, that at one
point the gods were trying to overthrow Zeus but were stopped when Thetis
brought a Hecatonchire to his aid. They are often considered sea-deities,
and may be derived from pentekonters, longboats with fifty oarsmen.
