Saturn
Saturn (also known as Saturnus) is the Roman counterpart of Kronos. Saturn's wife was Ops and was the father of Ceres, Jupiter, Vesta, Pluto, Neptune, and Juno, among others. Saturn was also the Roman god of fertility. In the Roman tradition, in memory of the Golden Age of man, a mythical age when Saturn was said to have ruled, a great feast called Saturnalia was held during the winter months around the time of the winter solstice. It was originally only one day long, taking place on December 17, but later lasted one week.
