Gaia, known as Earth or Mother Earth, was an early earth goddess
and it is written that Gaia was born from Chaos. She gave birth
to Pontus (the Sea) and Uranus (the Sky). In roman mythology she
was known as Tellus, who is also a goddess of fertility, or Terra.
Gaia took as her husband Uranus, and their offspring included the
Titans, six sons and six daughters.
