Theogeny

Theogony is the study or account of how gods and divine beings come into existence and how their relationships and hierarchies develop. In ancient Greek mythology, "Theogony" specifically refers to the myth written by Hesiod that describes the origins of gods, starting from primordial entities like Chaos and Gaia, and detailing how later gods, Titans, and Olympians are born and connected. It provides a systematic narrative of divine genealogy, illustrating the ways divine powers emerge, interact, and establish order in the mythological universe.
