Titan, in Greek mythology, is any of the children of Uranus (Heaven) and Gaea (Earth).
According to Hesiod’s Theogony, there were 12 original Titans: the brothers Oceanus, Coeus,
Crius, Hyperion, Iapetus, and Cronus and the sisters Thea, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe,
and Tethys.
Jove-
Jupiter, also called Jove, Latin Iuppiter, Iovis, or Diepiter, was the chief ancient Roman and
Italian god. Like Zeus, the Greek god with whom he is etymologically identical, Jupiter was a
sky god. The Titans set their brother Cronos on the throne of heaven: and Zeus tried to dethrone
him. The contest lasted ten years when Zeus became the conqueror and hurled the Titans into
hell.
Briareos
Typhon, also spelled Typhaon, or Typhoeus, in Greek mythology, youngest son of Gaea (Earth)
and Tartarus (of the nether world). He was described as a grisly monster with a hundred dragons’
heads who was conquered and cast into the underworld by Zeus.
Leviathan
leviathan is known to be an enormous sea monster that was one of Yahweh’s (the Christian god)
original creations. There were several other creatures of equal power that were created, but the
Leviathan was known to be the most dangerous of them all. There are many different theories as
to what inspired the tales of the Leviathan, but most are centred around demonstrating the
almighty power of Yahweh.
