Hesiod's chaos has often been interpreted as a moving, formless mass from which the cosmos and the gods originated, but Eric Voegelin sees it instead as creatio ex nihilo, much as in the Book of Genesis. Hesiod and the Pre-Socratics use the Greek term in the context of cosmogony. Greek χάος means "emptiness, vast void, chasm, abyss", from the verb χαίνω, "gape, be wide open, etc.", from Proto-Indo-European *ghen-, cognate to Old English geanian, "to gape", whence English yawn.

The Iliad, an epic poem attributed to Homer about the Trojan War (an oral tradition of 700 or 600 BC) states that Oceanus (and possibly Tethys, too) is the parent of all the deities.The many religious cosmologies constructed by Greek poets each give a different account of which deities came first.

The female members are capable of parthenogenesis as well as sexual reproduction. Chaos has at times been considered, in place of Ananke, the female consort of Chronos. These deities represent various elements of nature.


Genealogy and nature Although generally believed to be the first gods produced from Chaos, some sources mention a pair of deities who were the parents of the group. They preceded the Titans, the descendants of Gaia and Uranus. These deities are a group of gods from which all the other gods descend. They form the very fabric of the universe and as such are immortal. In Greek mythology the Primordial deities are the first entities or beings that come into existence.
