Gaea's Role

Among the first three immortal beings Gaea played what seems to me like the most important role in the creation of the titans and gods. Gaea was clever, and not unlike any human mother today. She created Uranus, Ourea and Pontus along with other immortal children. Gaea was responsible for all Greek gods and without her "mother-like" qualities, the myths we know today would all have something missing.

  1. I agree with what your saying here. Gaea is without a doubt a unique entity in the world of the immortals. Without her much of the value found in the myths would not exist because she embodies so many unique and resonating themes in her one entity.
