The Titans
In Greek mythology the Titans descended from the very first group of Gods that came into existence.
They were very strong giants and immortal.
The Titans ruled the world before the Olympians.
The very first Titans were Gaea (representing Earth) and Uranus (representing the sky or heaven). They gave birth to 12 titans: 6 male, 6 female.
