[edit] Comments

wasn't saturn the roman equivalent of cronus?

So the articles on Saturn and Cronos state. --Henrygb 02:15, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

This god is neither Saturn nor Cronus. -Silence 00:27, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

since Khronos redirects here, shouldn't there be some link to Khronos Group from here or the disambiguations?

No more. `'mikka (t) 05:34, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cronus or Chronos?

Our articles seem to be confused; was Saturn originally identified as Cronus or Chronos? I had always thought the former... 64.126.24.12 15:09, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Fixed. `'Miikka 16:03, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Latin counterpart?

Did Chronos have a Latin counterpart under a really different name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.203.56.155 (talk) 20:32, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

what is the difference between chronos and cronus? I am totally confused....two deities with the same name? Are they twins, or did this guy have some borderline disorder? :p —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.122.143.75 (talk) 22:20, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

It's not the same name. There's probably a difference in pronounciation that Greek speakers would get. One is the personification of Time and the other is the king of the Titans. -- Noneofyourbusiness (talk) 21:45, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
