According to the description of the ancient Greek divinity (7th century BC), at the beginning of the universe, Kaus was first born alone and was an endless carrier full of darkness and light. After Kaus, Gaia, the God of the earth, was born first, and then Tartarus, the God of the abyss of hell, and Eros, the God of love, were born independently. The world began.

According to Hesiod, the first born God was Kaus( Χάος/ Chaos) (line 116 of the divine manual). It is not "chaos" in the modern sense of "Amway is orderly and everything is mixed together". χάος A etymological automatic word χαίνω (to gape), so its original meaning is "space", and χάσμα The word (chasm) is homologous [1]. In order to avoid misunderstanding, some English versions of the book of divinities are not translated into chaos, such as M 50. West translated it into chasm [2]. The Titans were imprisoned on the other side of the dark CAOS (line 814), which means that the CAOS described by Hesiod was the void between the earth and Tartarus. The phase gods were born one after another, only in the order of birth, and there was no kinship: the first born was CAOS, and the next three were Gaia (earth), Tartarus (hell) and Eros (love and sexual desire). It is not appropriate to interpret the original text of the book of divinities as "the last three gods were born from Kaus and are descendants of Kaus", because the four gods in the original poem are juxtaposed and the verbs used are the same [3]. CAOS then gave birth to erebos (the nether world) and Nix (the night) alone. The combination of Eris and Nix produced Etel (high altitude or sky light) and Hemera (day light), respectively corresponding to their parents. Gaia alone produced Uranos (SKY), Pontos (SEA) and Congshan (plural) (lines 116-132). The world described by Hesiod was not created subjectively by one or several great gods, but evolved from the birth of various gods. Therefore, there is no so-called "five great creation gods".
Caius, night, darkness and deep and wide Tartarus (note that the four primitive beings here are not "born", but exist at the beginning). Later, love (EROS) was born from the wind eggs born in the night. In Tartarus, he combined with Caius and gave birth to birds. After that, heaven and earth and the gods were born. (lines 693-702) in this statement, Kaus is treated as a woman, although χάος The word is grammatically neutral [1]. It is generally believed that the myth used in Aristophane's plays originated from the Orpheus mythological version [4]. Aristophane also used "passing through Kaus" (Bird line 1218) in the later text, which means passing through the fissure between heaven and earth, that is, the atmosphere, all time and space, and all existence and nonexistence are in the air.
The doctrine of Orpheus has different views on Kaus. Orpheus did not regard Kaus as the earliest being, but regarded him as the God of time, Cronus, who had no beginning and no end( Χρόνος, Meaning time, it is the unique God of Orpheus). Except for the boundless CAOS( Χάος ἄπ ειρον), The God of time gave birth to the wet Etel( Α ἰ θήρ νοτερόν), After that, she gave birth to the misty erebos (Ἐ ρεβός ὀ μιχλ ῶ δες) [4-5] 。
"In the early days, the darkness was hidden by the depth of darkness. There was no discernment, and the vast expanse was full of water." [6] ; In the Old Testament, Genesis: "in the beginning, God created heaven and earth. The earth was empty and chaotic, and the surface of the deep was dark. The spirit of God ran on the water."
In the genealogy of Hesiod, the original four gods (CAOS, Gaia, Tartarus and Eros) were born one after another without any relationship (see above) [3]. CAOS has the following two children:
Erebos
Eris (ancient Greek: Ἔ) ρεβος, Erebus, the God of the nether world, was born in Kaus, the embodiment of eternal darkness. The basic elements that make up the universe. He is the brother of the night goddess Nikos, and he is also a part of the underground world. He is located between the earth (or the Sun World) and the underworld. He is the first place where the dead pass, and sometimes he is confused with taltalos.
Nyx
Nikos (ancient Greek: Νύξ, NYX) night goddess, born in Kaus, is the noumenon of night. It is also the basic element of the universe. Live at the entrance of the netherworld or at the Styx river. She gave birth to the gods of light, day, dream, death, sleep, fate, pain, aging and revenge. It has a high status and is binding on the Olympian Protoss and mankind.
