Zeus



Zeus, supreme god of Greek mythology. His mother, Rhea, saved him from his jealous father, Cronus, and he was brother and husband of Hera. He led the Olympian gods in overthrowing Cronus and the other Titans. By lot he became god of earth and sky (Poseidon won the sea, Hades the underworld). Zeus's Roman counterpart is Jupiter.
