Family Tree of the Greek Gods: from Hesiod's Theogony (Names Transliterated Greek)

He uses the word clearly as such in his description of the Titan-War where, through the flaming lightning bolts of Zeus "all the land (gaia) seethed, and Okeanos' streams and the unfruitful sea (pontos) . . . flame unspeakable rose to the bright upper air (aither) . . . astounding heat seized the gap (khaos). " (2) At the start of the genealogies Hesiod says "at the first Khaos came to be, but next wide-bossomed Gaia (Earth) . . . and dim Tartaros in the depths of the wide-pathed Earth, and Eros. " Some interpret this to mean that Gaia and the others were born of, or emerged from, Khaos. However most read this passage to say that the five emerged sequentially but independently of one another.
