In the ancient Greek religion and mythology, Hades (; Ancient Greek: ᾍδης, romanised: Hā́idēs, Attic Greek: [háːi̯dεːs], later [háːdeːs]) is the god of the dead and riches and the king of the underworld, with which his name became synonymous. Hades was the eldest son of Cronus and Rhea, although this also made him the last son to be regurgitated by his father. He and his brothers, Zeus and Poseidon, defeated, overthrew, and replaced their father's generation of gods, the Titans, and claimed joint sovereignty over the cosmos. Hades received the underworld, Zeus the sky, and Poseidon the sea, with the solid earth, which was long the domain of Gaia, available to all three concurrently. Roman-era mythographers eventually equated the Etruscan god Aita, and the Roman gods Dis Pater and Orcus, with Hades, and merged all these figures into Pluto, a Latinisation of Plouton (Ancient Greek: Πλούτων, romanised: Ploútōn), itself a euphemistic title (meaning "the rich one") often given to Hades.
