He was the king of the Titans and ruler of the world in Greek mythology before Zeus (his own son) overthrew him.

The harvest, nature and agriculture; similar to the Roman Saturn. He should not be confused with Chronos, the personification (not god) of time.

Cronus was a Titan, born from the primordial deities, Gaia and Ouranos. He castrated and overthrew his father with his sickle, which led to his worship as a harvest god, associated with crops and nature.

He was father of Zeus, Hades and Poseidon.

Cronus was not a God, per se but was a Titan, born from the primordial deities, Gaia and Ouranos. He castrated and overthrew his father with his sickle, which led to his worship as a harvest god, associated with crops and nature.

The titan Chronus/Kronos is God of time, he could control time reverse it, skip to the future but he is no longer in power of anything as Zeus imprisisoned him in tartarus, the underworld prison full of evil beast titans and himself chronus.

Cronus was not a Roman god. Cronus is the Latinization of the Greek name Kronos. The Roman counterpart to Cronus was Saturnus or simply, Saturn.

Saturn was the Roman god of the Harvest and king of the Titans. After his defeat at the hands of his son, Jupiter, he was exiled to the Italian Peninsula, where he ruled the men there during a Golden Age.

Kronos/Cronos isn't a titan of anything... in fact he isn't a titan. He is the father of Zeus.
