Also in “Cronus” Rhea wanted to save her son more than anything because Rhea now had someone to love and cherish. The theme of the lighting thief is correct because in the lighting thief and “Cronus” Rhea /Sally try to save their

In paragraph four of ‘Cronus’ the text says, “Rhea sent Zeus secretly to Crete.” Also,

ancient works, women do what they must to reach their goals. In the Odyssey and the Theogony, women use deceit to achieve their goals, with the difference being that in times of trouble Penelope is able to create and enact multiple plans on her own while Rhea must ask for help. While Homer gives some agency to his female characters, Hesiod does not. Penelope is able to deceive those around her into doing as she wants without the help of others; she has the agency to rise above the circumstances she is

Cronus would be deposed by one of his children. In order to prevent this, he swallowed each one as they were born. Rhea was unhappy about this and saved her last child Zeus, and gave a rock for Cronus to swallow. When Zeus grew up, Rhea persuaded Cronus to swallow an emetic and he regurgitated all the children, including Demeter

thunder and lightning. He was the son of Rhea and Kronos, the second tier of gods and goddesses. He was the official leader and king of Olympus. Zeus was the last of the children to be born from Rhea and Kronos. As all of Kronos’s children before, he would eat the children at birth, to avoid fate; fate being Kronos was meant to overrule by one of his sons. The goddess, Gaia (Mother Earth), told Rhea to hide her child from being born at the eyes of Kronos. Rhea was told to shelter her child away from
