Memorabilia
Making memorabilia was fun! Our learning was how to create a memorable poster or card and having to explain a myth. This is all part of a webquest made by our teacher. For me to create my memorabilia I had to increase my knowledge of a myth.
The power of Cronus and Zeus is preposterous. Most people fully believe these greek gods were powerful enough to rule the whole of Greece. Their background stories are still a mystery to this point. I place confidence in Cronus and Zeus both breaking a father and son bondship, because of the incident between Zeus's siblings being born. The thought of Cronus swallowing his children can be negated or assumed true.
Please comment and tell me what you think the background story of Cronus and Zeus is; and why they hate each other so much?
The Power of Cronus and Zeus
Kronos - Cronus
Roman name:
Saturn
Source of Power:
The titan god of time and age.
Kronos is the son of Gaia and Uranus, and the youngest titan. His father Uranus is a powerful God of the sky, Gaia his mother is the goddess of mother nature (Earth). He is married to a beautiful lady called Rhea, to whom made him into the father of Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, Poseidon and Zeus. Chiron was believed to be his son. Kronos and his wife is also Olympian gods.
Zeus
Roman name:
Jupiter
Source of Power:
The god of the sky, lightning, thunder, law and justice.
Zeus is the son of Cronus and Rhea. He had many affairs with many woman, but he decided to marry his own sister Hera. His siblings are Hestia, Demeter, Hades, Hera and Poseidon. His biggest enemy is Cronus his own father because he was told his father swallowed his siblings after they were born. But Rhea saved Zeus before Cronus ate him. So Zeus decided to send him to Tartarus the underground world, to his brother Hades.
