Gaea and Uranus, Nature Gods
By J.P.
Gaea and Uranus were the two most important Nature gods in the ancient Greeks. Gaea, is also called Ge, was mother earth to the Greeks. She was the creator of all of mankind and was mother to all the Greeks. The first son of Gaea was Uranus, who was the sky and the heavens and then was married to mother earth Gaea. Anything Gaea did change the way of life for the Greeks all Greeks and how they lived. When blood came out of Gaea it made the giants, nymphs, and furies, which are creatures, that very evil and they are like monsters to us. Uranus was the lord of the universe to the Greeks culture in life. He had children with Gaea and they had the Titans, the Cyclops, and the all mighty Cronus. He hated all of his children because he thought his children would ruin his relationship with Gaea. He wanted to banish his children and to be cruel to them so he can stay with Gaea. He was be traded by his sons, which leads to Cronus cutting him away from Gaea. Nature was important to the Greeks and that’s why there are these gods. Uranus is the sky and the heavens so if the Greeks were good they could go up there to pass away. Gaea controlled everything on the earth’s surface. Uranus and Gaea are the gods that made all of the earth and the heavens to the Greeks and also is why we are here today.
