Khaos

The word "Khaos" means space, gap, darkness and void, referring to Khaos as that which is between heaven and earth. Khaos was also calles - albeit rarely - as Poros ('passage, contriver, intriguer') and Aeros ('air'). When the world begun, Khaos was there. She is the goddess who predates everything else - gods and even the world. After Khaos arose Gaia (earth), Eros (love) and Tartaros. Without a mate, Khaos gave birth to Erebos (darkness) and Nyx (night). From the love between these two, were born Aether (light) and Hemera (day; according to Bacchylides, Hemera's father is Khronos). Nyx also bore other children - Moros, Ker, Thanatos, Hypnos, the Oneiroi, Momos, Oizys, the Hesperides, the Keres, the Moirai, Nemesis, apate, Philots, Geras and Eris1, who are all spirits affecting human lives (daimones).
​Later sources often describe Khaos as nothing but a chaotic mixture of the elements - lifeless and formless, nothing-yet.
