Gaia emerges from primordial Chaos and immediately begins creating without end: she births Uranus (the sky), the mountains, the sea, and thenāthrough union and parthenogenesisāproduces the Titans (including Cronus himself), the Cyclopes, the Giants, and countless other beings. She is the living source of all life, constantly fertile and generative.
In Greek mythology, particularly as described in Hesiod's Theogony (the primary ancient source), there are 12 original Titans (also called the elder Titans or Uranides). These are the direct children of the primordial deities Uranus (Sky) and Gaia (Earth).

They consist of:6 male Titans: Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Iapetus, and Cronus (the youngest and leader who overthrew Uranus).
6 female Titans (often called Titanesses): Theia, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, and Tethys.
This group of exactly 12 is the most commonly referenced "canonical" number in classical sources, possibly structured to parallel the 12 Olympian gods.
