  • Primordial goddess, arguably the first deity after Chaos itself. Mother of Ouranos, the Hecatonchires, and the 12 Titans. She is the Goddess of Earth (Terra) also known as Mother Nature.
  • Gaia was the Greek goddess that represented the Earth. She was the Mother of All Things, human, animal, monsters, monstrosities and not least of all, nearly every other god. She was the grandmother of Zeus and also his great-grandmother (it's complicated). From Gaia came everything that was important. So she had to be fruitful and that basically involved in a lot of begatting and inter-generational knee tremblers to populate the planet.
  • Gaia is a primordial deity in the Ancient Greek pantheon and considered a Mother Titan or Great Titan. Her equivalent in the Roman pantheon was Terra Mater or Tellus. Romans, unlike Greeks, did not consistently distinguish an Earth Titan (Tellus) from a grain goddess Ceres.
