The Greeks had a vast array of stories about the creation of the cosmos and the gods. The most prevalent myth is expressed in a poem called the Theogony by Hesiod, a Greek writer. The poem begins with Gaia - earth, Tartarus, and Chaos, who were created out of the vast nothingness of the universe, they later went on to create the rest of the cosmos.

Frequently in Greek literature the earth is referred to as Ge or Gaia.
