The "Theogony" (Gr: "Theogonia") of the ancient Greek poet Hesiod is a didactic or instructional poem describing the origins of the cosmos and the complicated and interconnected genealogies of the gods of the ancient Greeks, as well as some of the stories around them.
It was composed around 700 BCE, making it (along with "The Iliad" and "The Odyssey" of Homer) one of the earliest extant works on Greek mythology.
There are various alternative spellings for many of the names mentioned here. For instance, "c" and "k" are generally interchangeable, as are "us" and os", e.g Cronus/Kronos, Crius/Kreios, Cetus/Ceto/Keto, etc, and some are better known in their Latinized form
