He is a significant figure in the pantheon of Greek deities, and his name is derived from the Greek word for sun, "Helios." According to myth, Helios is the son of the Titans Hyperion and Theia, making him a second-generation Titan. His siblings include Selene, the goddess of the moon, and Eos, the goddess of the dawn. Helios is often described as a handsome and radiant god, with a crown of sun rays adorning his head. One of the most well-known stories involving Helios is the tale of his son Phaeton.
