Helios, the Sun God
A handsome Titan with flowing hair, driving a golden chariot pulled by four fiery steeds across the sky. That was the image that would come to the minds of ancient Greeks when they thought of Helios. To them, he was the representation of the sun and sunlight, traveling across the sky every day.

Often Helios appears to be wearing a shining aureole, or halo, of the sun upon his head. He had piercing eyes and long, curly hair.

Helios was the son of the Titan Hyperion and the Titaness, Theia, making him a second generation Titan.
His sisters were goddesses Selene, the moon, and Eos, the dawn.
Wives

The Titan had several wives and consorts. Among them were his sister, Selene, and Perse, an Oceanid.

It is not uncommon so see Helios given the epitaph Panoptes, or all-seeing, as the Greeks believed that he could witness anything in the heavens or on earth.

As the sun god, Helios would make a daily journey across the sky. Horses drew his chariot.

Each morning, his sister, Eos, would paint the dawn sky with her fingers and pull the misty curtain, through which Helios would appear, aside. He would drive his blazing chariot across the heavens until his travels were complete. At this time, he would he would hide in a golden cup that fell to earth while his sister, Eos, would begin her nightly trek.

The island of Rhodes, believed to have been shaped by Helios, is a place where people honored him as an important deity. Legend has it that when the island first came into being, it was muddy and uninhabitable. Helios dried the land and filled it with life, including seven of his sons known as Heliadae. Because of Helios’ life-giving intervention, some residents of the island worshiped him, and the island became sacred to Helios.
