Who is rhea in greek mythology?
Rhea, or Rheia, was the titaness wife of Kronos, or Cronus. She was the one who sired Demeter, Poseidon, Hestia, Hera, Hades and Zeus. When Kronos received a prophecy that his children would overthrow him, he then ate his children, but Rhea hid baby Zeus and gave Kronos a rock instead. When Zeus reached adulthood, he fed Kronos a mixture of mustard and wine that made him disgorge his children, who were developing undigested in his stomach, along with the rock.
