Caos (also translated as Caos, Caos; English/Latin: Chaos; Greek: Χάος）， The original order, time and space, and the carrier itself, the beginning and beginning of the world.
According to the ancient Greek genealogy (7th century BC), at the beginning of the universe, Caos was the first to be born alone and was a boundless, dark, and luminous carrier. After Caos, Gaia, the goddess of the earth, was first born, followed by Tartarus, the god of the underworld, and Eros, the god of love, who were born independently, thus beginning the world.

According to Hesiod, the first god born was Caos（ Χάος/ Chaos (line 116 of the Divine Genealogy). It is not the "chaos" of "Amway order, everything mixed together" in the modern sense. χάος One etymological automatic word χαίνω (Split, open, to gap), therefore its original meaning is "space", and χάσμα The word 'chasm' is cognate [1]. In order to avoid misunderstandings, some English translations of the Divine Genealogy are not translated as Chaos, such as M L. West's translation translates it as Chasm [2]. The Titans were imprisoned on the other side of the dark Caos (line 814), meaning that in Hesiod's depiction of Caos, the void between the earth and Tartaros, the phase gods were born alone one after another, with only the order of birth and no kinship: the first to be born was Caos, followed by Gaia (earth), Tartaros (hell), and Eros (love and lust). It is not appropriate to interpret the original text of the "Theology" as "the last three gods were born from Caos and are descendants of Caos", as the four gods are juxtaposed and the verbs used in the original poem are the same [3]. Caos subsequently gave birth to Eribos (the underworld) and Nix (the night) alone. Erebus and Nix combined to produce Etel (high-altitude or skylight) and Hermera (daytime), corresponding to their parents, respectively. Gaia alone produced Uranus (sky), Pontos (ocean), and Congshan (plural) (lines 116-132). The world depicted by Hesiod was not subjectively created by one or several great gods, but rather evolved from the birth of various gods. Therefore, there is no such thing as the 'five great creation gods'.

Caos, Night, Darkness, and the Deep Tartaros (note that the four primitive beings here were not "born" but existed from the beginning), and later Love (Eros) was born from the wind eggs laid by the night. In Tartaros, he combined with Caos and gave birth to birds. After this, heaven and earth and the gods were born. In this statement, Caos is treated as a woman, despite χάος The word 'is grammatically neutral'. It is generally believed that the myth used in Aristophanes' plays originated from the version of Orphean mythology [4]. Aristophanes later used the phrase 'passing through Caos' (line 1218 of the Bird), which means passing through the cracks between heaven and earth, that is, the atmosphere, all time and space, all existence and non existence are in the air.
The Orphesian doctrine has different views on Caos. Orpheanism does not view Caos as the earliest being, but rather as the god of time, Kronos, who has no beginning or end（ Χρόνος， It means time and is a descendant of the unique god of Orpheus. Except for the boundless Caos（ Χάος ἄπ ειρον）， Before the time god gave birth to a damp Ether（ Α ἰ θήρ νοτερόν）， Afterwards, she gave birth to a misty Eribos (Ἐ) ρεβός ὀ μιχλ ῶ δες） [4-5].
In the early days, darkness was hidden by the depth of darkness, indistinguishable and unaware, and the vast expanse was all water; The Old Testament Genesis: "At first, God created heaven and earth. The earth was empty and chaotic, with darkness on the surface of the abyss. The Spirit of God ran on the water

In Hesiod's "Theology", the original four gods (Caos, Gaia, Taltalos, and Eros) were born independently and without any kinship (see above) [3]. Caos has the following two children:
Eribos
Erebos (ancient Greek: Ἔ) ρεβος， Erebus, the underworld god, was born in Caos and is the embodiment of eternal darkness. The fundamental elements that make up the universe. He is the brother of the Night Goddess Nix, and he is also a part of the underground world, located between the earth (or the underworld) and the underworld. He is the first place that the deceased passes through, and sometimes mixed with Tartaros.
Nyx
Nix (ancient Greek: Νύξ， Nyx, the goddess of night, born in Caos, is the essence of night. It is also the fundamental element that makes up the universe. Living at the entrance of the underworld or at the Styx River. She gave birth to gods such as skylight, day, dreams, death, sleep, fate, pain, aging, revenge, etc. The status is noble and binding on both the Olympian deity and humanity.

The Greek mythology version is complex. Caos, as the first born god, is just one version of it.
Similar to Hesiod, versions with Caos as the initial god of birth include Aristophanes' "The Bird" (line 693; see above, in which the four gods initially coexisted) and Acusiraos (B 1 DK). Homer believed that Okeanos was the ancestor of all gods and all things (Iliad 14.201). One version of Orpheanism (fr. 28 Kern) considers the night god Nix as the primordial god, while other versions (fr.60 Kern) consider the time god Kronos as the primordial god [4]. In addition, there are many other versions available.
In addition, some versions of Greek mythology circulating on the market may refer to Eurynomos as the creation goddess born from chaos in the mythological legends of the ancient Greek indigenous Pilates. But this statement originated from the work of modern author Robert Graves' 'Greek Mythology', which is entirely his personal invention [11-12].
